We are beating up on Informix to provide a java replacement for c-net or i-net, but it seems that things have stalled. There seems to be a group of people at Informix that don't see that a Type 4 driver is what is needed to stay competitive (I don't think they "get it" with java). I hope they do see the light in the near future as Informix has the WORST client API interface I have ever seen. Good luck, Dirk Fromhein df@watershed.com http://www.watershed.com
