We were able to achieve good results with the language (despite what the critics may say) and far prefer it to things like VB. However, Informix is not actively promoting the sale of the product, so it's as good as dead. One thing I *can* say is : don't touch the AFCL with a barge pole. Check out http://www.dchsoftware.co.uk for the NEWT class libraries instead. Until Informix makes a clear statement of intention about NewEra's future, you would probably do better to avoid it. May I suggest SuperNova instead?
