1. Why does UDB Workbench fail to initialize? I'm running Windows XP.
Please make sure that UDB Workbench has read/write access to registry at HKCU, and option "Protect my computer and data from unauthorized program activity" in "Run As" dialog box is not checked.
2. When I tried to connect to DB2 I receive "Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV failed" error, I'm using Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Please make sure you run the program as "Administrator".
