What we did for one of our customers (using Informix Online DS 7.20 on AIX) having the same problem was to set the following variables: DBLANG=de_DE DBNLS=1 DBDATE=Y4MD- (not necessary) It works. But pay attention to the fact that the database must be created with these variables already set. Regards Helmut.Leininger@bull.net Bull AG Unix Support
