When this question : is posed to informix each person asked adopts an 'oops we screwed up' tone to : thier voice, but refuses to do anything about it!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yea! I agree completely. Come on Informix, spend a little less money on glossy junk-mail showing Informix and NT shaking hands, and spend a little more on developing your own in house ODBC driver. Then bundle it with every piece of DB front-end-4gl-like-application-builder tool known to man. I get an Oracle driver for free with just about every package I buy these days. : SO............my question to you all is: Does anyone know where I could : get an ODBC driver for Informix that is not part of another products license? After posting here to find out more info, I tried to get a ODBC driver from Bull Express, but when I called to get more info, they told me that they would take my money now, but the product wouldn't be released until the end of August (I got the advertising mailer in May). You can try the 800 number below for Bull, and see if you get a different story.
