I'm using eclipse with DB2. Therefore I've installed the dbEdit Plug-In in
eclipse. This works for simple editing and viewing of table contents. But
for development that's good enough.

After installation of dbEdit, register the "db2java.zip" archive as driver
path in the settings for dbEdit.

Now the driver is registered and you can open a connection to your database.
As driver I'm using "COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver". The Server URL for
the sample database is "jdbc:db2:sample" for example.
