As such, it must be installed AFTER any IDS 7.2x or 7.3x engine. If it is installed before the engine, then the Client SDK product bundles are unlikely to work, most likely obtaining unknown error message numbers due to being overwritten by 7.2 or 7.3 specific libraries and message files. PK ----------------------- Well, this is quite confusing to say the least! You say that SDK should be installed AFTER the engine. One of the Informix Manuals tells us that the order of installation is unimportant; while another Manual tells us that SDK should be installed BEFORE the engine. References: 1) Informix Client Products, Installation Guide for Unix Version 2.01, p.3 "If you install more than one Informix product on the same computer, you must install them in the following order: 1. Client Products (Client SDK or Connect) 2. Database Servers ............." 2) Installation Guide for Informix Dynamic Server on Unix Version 7.3 "If you install more than one Informix product on the same computer, you do not have to install them in a specific order. You can install clients first or the database server first." So, what do you make of these instructions? Alanoly J. Andrews
