Hi, does somebody use the new JDBC type 4 Informix driver, which is now available?. Trying to use it, I get the error shown below. SQLException in initDatabase(): No suitable driver Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at JDBCConnection.getDataFromDatabase(Compiled Code) at JDBCConnection.activateConnectionDialog(JDBCConnection.java:268) at JDBCConnection.main(JDBCConnection.java:397) The error occurs, when I try to connect to the database with the following url: String db_url = "jdbc:informix-sqli://131.234.20.27:1500/stores7:informixserver=infdbengels:user=xxx:password=yyy"; con = DriverManager.getConnection(db_url); The classpath to the driver is set (c:\\Programme\\Informix\\jdbc\\lib), so what is wrong? Thank you in advance Christoph
