Edit the system’s environment variables.Copy the user variable for

administrator contents of Include, path and lib to the corresponding

system variable. The new system values for Include, path, and lib should

include the setting for Visual C++ so that DB2 can use c++ utilities for

Restart DB2 and related db2 processes so that these changes are in effect.
