ODBC Setup instructions inside!!

I have just recently written up a full set of documentation with "dummy instructions" for setting up ODBC to Informix ODS 7.23 on a Windows 95 workstation. I've enclosed the .HTM document in this post (as an attachment.) It assumes that you have the Online Dynamic Server CD-ROM and that's all it assumes. Here it is. There are some company and application specific details, plus the graphics are missing but they're not too necessary to understand the concepts and *definitely* not necessary to follow the very simple instructions. To whomever can be helped by this, more power to you. Let me know here or by E-mail if you have questions.
