OK, I can connect to the database OK
after properly configuring my XP ODBC connection
from administrator tools - but
it only works if I use "odbc_connect" instead of
"db2_connect".

Any attempt to use a function starting with db2_
fails with "undefined function" message.

Does this mean the PHP 5 that I installed
did not have support for DB2 compiled in?

or...

Can I tell from my php_info() if the PHP 5 that I installed
has compiled in support for db2??

Thanks
J
