Access and DB2

Tom
I'm using Access to work with my data stored in a DB2 database on an
AS/400. One of the things that I would like to do is to create code
that will attach (link to) all the necessary tables. I know this can
be done when attaching other Access tables.

Can this be done for my DB2 database? If so, does anyone know HOW?
Can you point me to a location with this information?

(The code Microsoft has on their web site only works for another
Access db, not for my DB2 db.)

Thanks in advance...

Attach one table manually. Inspect the Connect property.
Now you can adjust the relink code for another Access db.

Thanks.

I'm still rather new to Access. It sounds like you're saying to use
Basic to look at these properties. Would you happen to have, or know
where I might obtain such code? I guess I need a little "jump start"
here, to get me going.

Hi, I'm a bit confused ... when would I rather write an database application using MS Access and Visual Basic and when (and why) would I rather write it using Visual Studio .Net? Is it as easy in Visual Studio to create reports and labels as it's in Access?` The advantage of VS.net is that not every user needs Access, right? And that would eliminate the Access version problem as well I guess.

I am trying to convince a client that dotNet is preferable to an Access project (ADP/ADE). This client currently has a large, pure Access MDB solution with 30+ users, which needs to be upgraded. I believe a dotNet solution is better, but I'm trying to be as convincing as possible -- and maybe I'm wrong! I would appreciate any input or references which could help me.
