Driver Issue

I have 2 machines, each has a different version of the drivers which connect
to DB2.
I successfully connect to the database in Machine #1. I move my code to
Machine #2 and I removed the reference to the IBM DB drivers and point it to
the older version of the drivers. I know that this is taking effect because
when I attempt to re-compile, it tells me one of the data types is not
supported )in the older version of the drivers). After I comment out the
reference to that new data type (not really used in the actual code), the
program recompiles just fine. However, when I attempt to run the program, it
fails which a message which identifies that it was not able to locate the
newer version of the drivers (I know this because it gives me the version
number of the drivers that it is looking for).

Where is this reference to the new set of the drivers coming from? How can
I remove this reference and enable it to reference the version which is
attached in the "reference"?

Thanks in advance for your assistance!!!

Out of curiosity, what is the impediment to using the same driver version on
both machines and eliminating the situation?
 
The issue is that one set up drivers support the .Net framework with the .Net
drivers and I am attempting to get those driver's degugged, so I am using the
other machine to continue with the drivers which only support the 1.1 version
of the framework, so I am using the OLEDB version of the drivers on the other
machine.

Does this answer the question?
