SPL conversion to DB2

I'm not really converting Informix stored procedures to DB2, but I *am* trying to learn DB2. One would think I could ask any number of people here at New Blue, but I'm trying to approach it from my Informix background, and there's only about 3 people in the continental U.S. who have dual expertise (and they don't advertise). My questions are many, but for starters to any DB2/Informix dual experts: Can you point me to some readable documentation for how to create DB2 stored procedures? (i.e. readable syntax; vanilla sample code welcome) Can I execute DB2 stored procedures from the command line (i.e., pipe an execute statement to the "db2" command, a la dbaccess)? If so, what is the syntax? Any and all RTFM pointers (read, show me the URL) are greatly appreciated. -mka Michael Ackerbauer SP Platform Evaluation Test
