When I try to take the sample exam, it demands a password which I apparently don't have.

Hi Agatha,

Wow I just found all this info in the last couple of days. I have been viewing Raul Chong's videos and gathering as much info as I can. Im interested in taking the DB2 9 Fundamentals Certification Exam (730). I deal with DB2 at work, just dont really have anything official saying that I do so. This is kinda exciting like college all over again. Thanks for all the info around here.
