Someone told me something about GLS support; :does this solve the problem or is there something else to do? I don't know LiveWire Pro, but there is every reason to believe it will. Informix have a significant problem with foreign (8 bit) characters and requires NLS or GLS to be able to insert them into the database. I think GLS is on 7.2 and later only while it was NLS on earlier versions.
