RE: Informix ODBC Error

I haven't used the drivers you speak of. But, if you cannot get it to work, I would suggest taking a look at drivers provided by Openlink Software. (www.openlinksw.com) They provide you an unlimited, 2 user license at no cost. I found the drivers very easy to install. They work well, and I was impressed with the quality of the installation/administration of the drivers. There's 2 parts to install. One is the driver on the client, the other is the server piece that runs where your Informix DB is. I use the drivers to connect from both my PC, which is running windoz98, and our NT machines to Informix running on Sun Unix. P.S. I use Perl for both NT/Unix. > -----Original Message----- > From: chaitu@my-deja.com [SMTP:chaitu@my-deja.com] > Sent: Wednesday, December 15, 1999 6:36 PM > To: informix-list@iiug.org > Subject: Informix ODBC Error > > Hi, > I need to pull out data from an informix database for a project in > MSAccess.
