You can download the PDF versions of many of the Informix OEM books right off the Informix Web Site. If I'm not mistaken there are also some docs over at Netscape for the OWGS and Livewire. It'll be a fun hunt no doubt. :-) And you can wander over to my little web site too, which has a couple of tools here and there that might be of benefit. The June issue of my ezine is out with some tools especially created for new-to-informix people. A few veterans might like some of them as well... Happy Hunting and welcome to Informix software... :-) Tim -- Tim Schaefer \\\\|// tschaefe@mindspring.com (6 6) ------------------------oOOo---( )---o00o--------- http://www.inxutil.com
