That is good, but how :about a solution based on Informix-CLI (ODBC interface?). I read from :the Informix documentation that INFORMIX-CLI for UNIX conforms to the :Microsoft ODBC Specification and it's system requirements are as :follows: : :* INFORMIX-OnLine (Version 5.x) << WOW!! That's ours old good 5.0 :* INFORMIX-OnLine Dynamic Server (Version 7.x) :* INFORMIX-SE (Version 5x, 7.x) It's supposed to work. Probably not many users. We have not tested it. This is similar to the OpenLink UDBC interface, but requires I-Net on the Unix client machine as well as the CLI library. You also need I-STAR on the server side to work with 5.x engines.
