How about Win NT versions ? > We use this engine for all our standalone apps and it works quite well. Its a proper Windows version and it seems to run just fine under Windows95 and Windows NT. Advantages include version 6 engine, support for multiple connections, automatic loading and unloading. The only downside is the pathetic implementation of DBACCESS under Windows (Informix patched the character mode to work under Windows and it runs like a Dog). Come on INFORMIX, how about providing a proper Windows DBACCESS tool with a scrolling Grid control capable of viewing multiple records? David N. Heydon LANGDON SYSTEMS LTD > Thanks Ronny
