I am unaware of whether they have a 32 bit version out yet. If you want to use ODBC from NewEra rather than the native driver, Openlink provide a 32 bit version which does away with the I-net layer as well. I have used this in 16 bit mode and am so far impressed with the results over the trad Intersolve/I-net solution. Peter Tashkoff Auckland, New Zealand e-mail ptash@iconz.co.nz
