With the Informix ODBC driver for Linux installed you can use Star Office, as well as severel other "commercial" packages (Applix, etc...). UnixODBC comes with some "nice" but not particularly advanced tools. Also the gnome-db component can interface an ODBC driver DSN to any Gnome app that can use the gnome-db component. Of course their are also all those Java apps that use JDBC. No shortage of options. Systems and Network Administrator Morrison Industries 1825 Monroe Ave NW. Grand Rapids, MI. 49505
