But if I haven't SDK, then I can install an ODBC to informix and use the DBD::ODBC instead of DBD::Informix. I'm looking now for Johnathan recomendation, trying to get SDK free for SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 (and informix 7.2x). Or a binary version of perl with DBI::Informix for SCO OpenServer 5 and informix 7.2x. My original question was some kind of twisted (weird?) thing. The data flow that I imagine was: perl <===> DBI <===> DBD::Informix modified <===> dbaccess or fglgo_modified myinterfacetosql.4gi connecting the DBI thru pipes to dbaccess or a program in 4gl. Thank for your time (and Johnathan's also) -- Mario R. Canto mcanto@intec.unl.edu.ar mcanto@intec.arcride.edu.ar http://www.intec.unl.edu.ar/~mcanto
