You could do DTS,but you will run into troubles if the data to be migrated is big... It will need a lot of logical logs... If you know how to deal with this issue do it through DTS is easy.

Why dont you use DTS available in Sql Server ? Get the ODBC driver for Informix from Microsoft or some one else. Set up a DTS package using Informix as the Source and MS Sql Server as the target. Once you set up the DTS it will migrate all the data for you.

Just curious. What does the "chucho!" at the end of your post mean ?
