Thanks Alexander. I did downloaded IBM DB2 driver and were able to
successfully connect to database.
So far it works great but it doesnt serve my purpose because pyodbc
doesn't support Python 2.6 meaning i wasn't able to find pyodbc
installation software for Python 2.6 on Windows 2008 64 bit OS

Please point me to the link from where i can download if its available
otherwise its big limitation on part of pyodbc

Regards,
Bansi
