I am about to convert a program (which is not yet released) from VB6 to
VB2005. VB2005 uses .NET, and it seems to me that db2 Version 9 only
works with .NET, or am I wrong?

Where do I find instructions on how to install V9 without ODBC so that
it will accept calls from a .NET provider (in this case
VisualBasic2005).

I have both installed on one machine, but db2 v9 cannot be started and
there is no client for it. Also, VB2005 doesn't recognize it.

Is that UDB (server) 8.2, or DB2 client-side driver 8.2?

We have a VB6 app connecting to UDB 8.1.6 and are beginning to convert
to VB .NET (2003). There are plans to move to UDB (server) 8.2, but
not immediately. If we only need the client-side driver, we donoty need
to change those plans.
