Sorry, I forgot to mention. I'm doing this in Classic ASP. I don't think there'd be much of a difference, but my experience with .NET has been limited.

wendelina,

Where can I find Client Access ODBC Driver, I checked on IBM site, but couldn't find it.  Do you have any links?  

Thank You for your help.

Can I use OLEDB to connect to AS400.  I found some info about IBMDA400, where can I find this oledb driver.  I think if I use oledb driver, I do not have to create dsn using odbc driver, am I right.  Please comment.

How about .net provider, is there any .net provider available?

Sorry I didn't respond to this sooner.

Beyond "Client Access Express" (now known as "iSeries Access"), I'm not familiar with any other drivers or ways to connect. I was actually kinda lucky I came across the ODBC solution. As you probably know pretty well, there really isn't that much out there about connecting to a 400 from the web.
Hi,

I am coding my ASP.NET app using iSeries .Net provider beta from IBM.  I will let you know after I am done testing.

Thanks
