I am feeling stupid, but I have been all over the IBM site for two days and can't find the latest Informix ODBC driver. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Laurie Gustin IT Programmer Analyst Department of Public Safety lgustin@utah.gov 801-965-4410 sending to informix-list

You're looking for Informix Connect or Informix SDK for your platform. The latest release is 2.90. However, you may want to stick to release 2.81 unless you are already running IDS 10.00 exclusively - 2.90 assumes the engine allows ORDER BY columns that were not selected and sends such queries through where they fail. Earlier versions would add the missing columns to the end of the selected column list and strip the data out of the results for you so that such 'bad' SQL still completed successfully. Art S. Kagel
