what is the diff? COM.ibm.... & com.ibm

Hi guys
Could somebody please tell me if there is any difference if I access the jdbc driver as 'com.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver' instead of 'COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver'??
Why is that the 1st qualifier is in upper case? Does it mean that there are 2 versions of drivers from IBM?
I am using db2java.zip in java12 directory and it doesn't contain any class beginning with 'com/ibm/...'.
Now, since package name is case-sensitive, where is the class being picked up from.
I am using DB2 7.1 Fixpak 4.
Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
