create procedure error with ODBC-connection

Hi all, i am an informix newbie and i'm now at the end of my alternatives with this problem: I want to create a stored procedure like e.g. CREATE PROCEDURE test() END PROCEDURE;over an ODBC-sql connection. I receive the following error message: "Error: General error.Syntax error (State:37000, Native Code: FFFFD4CC)". An ODBC-trace delivers: "DIAG [37000] [Informix][Informix ODBC Driver]General error.Syntax error (-11060)" which gives no detailed error description in the Informix Find Error helpfile. It seems to me, that this is no server error message, but an ODBC-client error. Registering the stored procedure via dbaccess on the server is no problem, but i don't want to give remote access for users to the server. So, is it generally possible to create procedures via ODBC-Connections? If not, which dbaccess-like client tool is available which connects native to the Informix CLI-driver? Exists any other possible solutions? Serversystem: WinNT 4.0 Server, SP6a, IDS 7.31.TC7 Clientsystems: WinNT 4.0 Workstation, SP6a, Client SDK 2.50 TC2, MDAC 2.60.6526.3, Winsql 3.5.11 Any suggestions and help is widely welcome!
