You will find info in www.platinum.com It is an excellent product suite & support as well as competence of the company is very good in Europe also.

(We are on >100 Servers/INFORMIX V7.12 now migrating to V7.30/SiemensNixdorf SINIX V5.43) Don't hesitate to e-mail me directly , if I can be of any help Good luck Dick Richard Kofler EDVg-debis Systemhaus Vienna / Austria e-mail: richard_kofler@edvg.co.at -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/ Now offering spam-free web-based newsreading
