Re: I-NET on WIN95
Posted in 1996
This is true, you can use 32 bit ODBC driver with I-NET 5.01.TE1 version of I-NET for WINDOWS NT. However, there is NO supported 32 bit I-NET for Windows 95. Intersolv will tell you that there is a "work around" which allows you to use the NT version of I-NET on 95. The problem is that I-NET 5.01.TE1 calls PEEKMESSAGE while in the middle of an SQL statement. This makes most all programs using the driver re-entrant. This makes their driver completly (or any driver using that version of I-NET) non ODBC compliant. If you can live with this and no support from Informix, go for it.
