What would be the best way to connect to DB2 from COBOL - through the JCL or through the program? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each of the methods? Could you please provide some code snippets for each?

Hi,
If you use IKJEFT1B as utility prog to connect and i think that is better then using in prog to conect...as if u use prog to connect DB2 then i think u need to go by CAF DB2...
