 Accessing AS/400 DB2 physical files with Java
Hello All, We have one JDE Word Writer program, which export the order master data in the DB2/400 Physical files. We want to access this data from our java program (reside on windows platform). I am wondering how we can do that. I got one hint that can be accessed by ODBC connection. But I am unable to get the correct ODBC driver. I am looking for correct driver to access the data. If some one has done this already, please help me.

Answer Wiki:
Here is link to the Java toolbox for AS/400 JDBC page. From here, you should be able to answer your questions. I wrote about this stuff in 2002 and I think it is still valid so check www.itjungle.com for articles on the subject. select the AS/400 Guru newsletter and scroll to the bottom (not sure how well the search works) and you will see article on access RPG and the AS/400 from java. Here is the link to the Java tookbox for java http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/i/software/toolbox/faqjdbc.html Hope this helps
