AS400

thks

João,
Its best to be on Client Access V5R2 or later (with current all PTFs) to be
fully supported from .NET. (I understand that you can remain on an older
OS/400 such as V4R5, its the client that needs to be current).

http://www-912.ibm.com/n_dir/nas4ap...6be4003c8957?OpenDocument&Highlight=2,ii13341

The above links are from June 3rd, not sure if there are more current
versions with better support...

If you look around the SQL Thing site (http://www.sqlthing.com) and the
above sites you should come across a number of samples and further
information.

I understand that Client Access V5R3 will include a "native" .NET Data
Provider, which should see an improvement in performance!

Hope this helps
