TC does not have an SQL pre-processor, thus you can only access any SQL 
database using the native API, and not using embedded SQL.

If DB2 includes an SQL pre-processor for COBOL, and I think it does, the 
following may (or may not) work.
Pass the embedded SQL COBOL program thru the DB2 SQL pre-processor for 
COBOL. And then using TC, compile it's output adding the appropriate DB2 
library(s) in the link step.
