I had similar problems with dbexplorer which turned out to be related to enviornment variables set by the 'setnet32' utility. Run setnet32 and check that all of the variables are set appropriately (esp. INFORMIXDIR and INFORMIXSERVER). These variables are user specific in NT, so be sure to do this for each user using the database. HTH -- Irwin Goldstein Objective Software Systems, Inc. http://www.objectsoft.com
