I'm trying to get this working myself - although I'm using DBD::DB2 rather than DBD::ODBC. I'll try to update this when I figure out what I'm doing wrong ;-)

First - I suggest using DBD::DB2 if you can (I realise that on Windows it's easier said than done ... which is why I like my Linux box ;->). Second - can you tell me which version of DB2, and which product you're using on Windows? And, if the server is a different machine, what it is (version, product, OS)? e.g., "DB2 Runtime Client v7.2 running against DB2 ESE v8.1FP6a on AIX" - Thanks

UPDATE: The dtlob.pl script that is part of DB2 v8.2's samples (be sure to install the sample applications) seems to work, although I'm still trying to figure out why when I write it myself it doesn't :-)
