I manage a SCO/Informix system and use 95 on my personal computer and have no problems just going right in through thru INET. Per the earlier posting though, just make sure you set Setnet properly and you should have no problem. Now using 32 Bit ODBC drivers for Crytal and trying trying to connect to INET on 95 is a different animal. Would be interested in knowing if anyone has got that to work... --Dave
