ADO connection string keywords
To specify ActiveX Data
Objects (ADO) connection string keywords, you must specify the keyword
by using the
keyword=value format
in the provider (connection) string. You must delimit multiple keywords
with a semicolon (;).
The following table describes the keywords supported by the IBM® OLE DB Provider for Db2®:
| Keyword | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| DSN | Name of the database alias | The Db2 database alias in the database directory. |
| UID | User ID | The user ID used to connect to the Db2 server. |
| PWD | Password of UID | Password for the user ID used to connect to the Db2 server. |
Other CLI configuration keywords also affect the behavior of the IBM OLE DB Provider.
