A while back I thought I saw something about a developers edition of IBMs
DB2 that work well as a .Net training tool for access DB2 databases.

Does this ring a bell with anybody?


Any help is greatly appreciated.

You want a training application, the DB2 8.2 personal edition, a .NET
provider for connecting with DB2 or something else?

Thank you for your response.

The DB2 8.2 personal edition and NET provider sounds good.

Do you have a URL?
 
Take a look at my blog
http://blogs.ittoolbox.com/database/talk/archives/006450.asp for instructions
on getting DB2 Developer's Edition free of charge. DB2 Developer's Edition
contains DB2 Add-ins for Visual Studio .NET that work with VS.NET 2003. To
get goign with these add-ins make sure that you choose to install DB2
Applcaition Development Client on the machien where VS.NET 2003 is installed.

To get going quickly with the DB2 add-ins for VS.NET you can get a CD with
trainign materials on it called "Fast Path to building DB2 Universalo
Database (UDB) applciations in a Visual Basic .NET Environment" GK3T-9266-00.
You can get it at this url
http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data/education/l1630.html.

If you are interested in using DB2 with Visual Studio 2005, then you will
need to wait just a little bit. IBM will be releasing both the DB2 .NET Data
Provider and IBM DB2 add-ins for Visual Studio 2005 very very soon. I will be
doign a webcast on this topic on Decemebr 15th. To register go to
