I need help. I'm trying to access an Informix database on a sco unix box through odbc using access97 to produce some reports. I have a windows98 machine where I edited the hosts and the services file defining the tcpip address of the unix server and the port 1625/tcp fro sqlexec service. I'm using Iconnect and trying to detect the conection using Ilogin. Can any body please tell me what the parameters I need to fill out are.?? How can I proceed.??? Thankyou in advance. Ivan.

> defining the tcpip address of the unix server and the port 1625/tcp fro Default TCP port of sqlexec is 1526/tcp, not 1625. Look at Unix (/etc/services) for correct TCP port for you Informix instance. L.
