Which to use? It depends.

ODBC is probably simpler (and directly faster), but you bypass any business rules the RPG provides. So this is the first thing you need to decide for your circumstances. For example a well-established AS400 is pretty solid and the buisiness rules have probably evolved to a strong position, so you don't want to re-work those (favour calling RPG). Of course if you are looking to deprecate the RPG code base you would want to migrate it to the .net side (this favours ODBC, but will more than likely cause a lot of work).

To confuse the mix, further, newer versions of RPG are capable of exposing SOAP (and consuming) web services, you should consider those. My memory of these things is hazy (and we used a screenscraper in the end). I think you can also get biztalk to play with the iSeries, this provides a pathway for communication in more complex scenarios.
