The JDBC functionality I am pretty sure is not supported through vba and I think you need to use ODBC connectors to connect to DB2 if you are trying to integrate it into excel.

Private Sub query()
  DBCONSRT = "Provider=MSDASQL.1;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=user;Data Source=NZ1;DSN=NZ1;UID=user;SDSN=;HST=ibslnpb1.sysplex.homedepot.com;PRT=4101;In‌​itial Catalog=PRTHD;"
  Using connection = New OleDbConnection(DBCONSRT )
      connection.Open()
      Dim cmd = connection.CreateCommand()
      cmd.CommandText = QRYSTR //This is where your sql statement should go, or the variable that is equal to the query.
      Using dr = cmd.ExecuteReader()
          //Process your query results here 
      End Using
  End Using
End Sub
