DB2 to PDL dictionary utility?

[Edis, Bob]

G'day Paul

As DB2 is a relational database you should be able to create a new PDL
script with a DATABASE section pointing to the DB2 database.  The metadata
should be inherited directly from the RDBMS rather than explicitly putting
it in the PHD.

Subject: DB2 to PDL dictionary utility?




AS400 users,

     My company is in the process of obtaining an AS400 to run an order
entry
package. I have limited knowledge of the AS400 and the DB2 data base. I was
wondering if there is a product that will create a PH dictionary from a DB2
data
base.  A call to Cognos support indicated that the utility  "genpldsrc"
contained in PH607F might be used to create a PowerHouse dictionary from the
DB2
library tables. Can anyone verify if this utility will work or does anyone
have
any specific experience in generating a dictionary from DB2.

     Thanks in advance.
