If you have 7.10 there's a thing called DBCockpit that interrogates it for you and displays it all in nice real-time graphs. If you're not on 6 yet then the only way of getting this information is via the command line utilities. Getting the info into ESQL/C in any kind of useful format could involve quite a hairy bit of text manipulation on the generated output. akent@cix.compulink.co.uk (Andy Kent) ------------------------------------------------ Freelance Informix Database Specialist, Redland, Bristol, England
