Re: PHP on WIN32 with DB2 CLI

Chris - I think to use DB2's CLI interface, you need a compiled langauge, like some flavor of C++ or VB. I've seen some examples using the CLI interface, so my question is why on earth would you chose that over generic ODBC? That CLI is nasty-looking, pages of code versus what you can do in a few lines with ODBC.. - but I have a project using both DB2 on a mainframe and DB2 UDB - so I am very interested in your thoughts on all this!
