Hi All I work already 1 year with informix Esql and now I would like to install informix to my home PC.I took Informix Dinamic Server, but it asks me for some server when I want to install it.I thought that it is server itself. Basicaly I need database on my PC. Which informix exactly do I need? Thanks in advance Igor

What system is your home PC running? AFAIK there are only server versions for NT (not for Windows95/98), e.g. the Workgroup server (ODS) or Linux (IDS, SE).
