    MS Access vs Shareware SQL query software

    If anyone replies who saw my other posts, now you know why my posts
    look as if I'm using MS Access.


    I'm trying to google information about MS Access and why MS Access
    causes database locks within DB2. The Developers at my current job
    discourage MS Access queries on the DB2 database. Here is what I
    found so far:

    Microsoft Access, however, is different. Access has its own object
    model. The lock prevents users from connecting to the database(SDW).
    DB2 UDB is an object-relational database server.


    Problem:
    Execution of programs using the SDW sometimes fail because of the use
    of MS Access queries. There are no failues when running queries using
    the Shareware software query tools.

    Do anyone know the reason why MS Access causes problems for the SDW
    and SQL query tools do not?
