>Has anyone done this? yes, but it did take some searching. i suppose you have an inet or istar on the 5.x side. on the 7.x side : my $INFORMIXDIR/etc/sqlhosts contains a line Intel486 sesoctcp Intel486 sqlexec with in /etc/services : sqlexec 1525/tcp with Intel486 the name of the remote 5.x server then i give "dbaccess /dbase/my_dbase@Intel486" and it connects to my se dbase "my_dbase" on path "/dbase" This gave me access to my database. About you trying to select something from not the current database, well, i don't know :-( Guy.
