Subject:	SCOUG-Programming: ODBC drivers for DBExpert with DB2

Content Type: text/plain

At the next programming sig meeting, I'd be very interested in spending
two minutes on learning what the difference is between the ODBC drivers
supplied with DB2 and with DBExpert, as per Sundial:

* If you install DB2 on your workstation after installing DBExpert,
you
may not be able to run DBExpert or access your data. This is due
to a
confusion which arises between the DB2 ODBC drivers and the
DBExpert
ODBC drivers (even though neither is used by DBExpert to access
DB2).
To correct the problem, you must edit your CONFIG.SYS file and
modify
the LIBPATH statement so that the DBEXPERT directory (the
directory
where you have DBEXPERT installed) comes before the SQLLIB\DLL
directory.

My curiosity surpasses just tech support (I've got both products) -- I
want to know what functionality is different between the drivers and why
DBExpert requires a new version of the driver.
