Hi, and thank you.  My understanding was that I still needed the DB2 stuff 
behind odbc. Was I mistaken? 
I know jdbc works well,  but I haven't been able to get my odbc_connect to 
succeed. Can anyone please help me find the proper odbc connection syntax and 
backend to connect to a Derby network server from PHP?

Thanks again!
