Using the RIM Client

You can access DB2 Web Query Tool via the e-mail interface using a RIM device (such as a Blackberry). After you install the DB2 Web Query Tool RIM software, you can use a simplified interface to run SQL, run queries, and convert results using DB2 Web Query Tool.

Note:     For help on installing RIM software, see your Blackberry software installation help.

You can access the DB2 Web Query Tool RIM Client through the DB2 Web Query Tool icon on your home screen.

You can store Web Query database connection e-mail addresses in your address book. Type the connection name for the first name and DB2WEBQUERY for the last name. The DB2 Web Query Tool Client recognizes these entries as database connections and adds them to the list that appears when you select Connect from the DB2 Web Query Tool menu.

You can run SQL, run queries, or convert results using the Web Query Client. Select a connection from the Web Query menu, then select the desired action and fill in the requested information. The Web Query Client automatically generates the appropriate command e-mail and sends it to the server you selected. You can view results in your RIM inbox.

Tip:     If you forward your results to an e-mail address other than your own, you cannot view them in your RIM inbox.
