I wrote a Scouting and Headquarters system for the Phoenix Suns in Omnis 7 v2.2 for Mac. While I didnt connect to any of our Informix DB's here in the office I had planned on it as a possibililty later on for some other work. The method seemed pretty 'straight forward' in the Omnis manuals. (but Im far from fooled by them). Id be interested in knowing what troubles you are encountering and what I could expect.
