I have the following installed:

LLBLGen Pro v5.2 RTM

Progress IBM Db2 ADO.NET driver (https://www.progress.com/net/ibm-db2)

When I create a new project, the Progress driver is not listed in the Database Driver dropdown. What do I need to do in order to get it to show up?

I'm trying to use this driver because it supports DB2 iSeries.

Thanks for any help.

Is the DbProviderFactory registered in the relevant (.net version) machine.config?

Our code doesn't support iSeries. THe limitation for iSeries isn't about the ado.net provider, but about the meta data and SQL being different and we can't test our code on iSeries as we don't own an AS/400 simple_smile So your workaround won't work.
