On Informix Side: If SE then Informix Inet If Online then Informix Istar On PC Side: You need Informix I-Net for the PC and any ODBC driver for the Informix. For the ODBC driver, you can call Visigenic (1800-632-2864) or Intersolv. I hope this help.

What is the best approach: 1) Informix supplied solution What is required on the server side? What is required on the client side? Do they support their own version 4.10? 2) Third party drivers Which companies support version 4.10 of Informix? What pieces do we need to buy (client side, server side)? 3) Upgrade Informix What is involved? How much does it cost typically when keeping the same number of users? Which version can we get by with least cost/complexity that still supports easy and reliable ODBC communications? BTW, is there any FAQ, white paper, web site, etc. that deals with the issues of either Informix ODBC communications or Informix upgrades?
