For connecting to Oracle and SQL databases, VB has facility of 'providers' which comes bundled with VB. However, for connecting to Informix, no provider is available within VB. The documentation (of VB) also does not mention anything on connectivity to Informix. Can somebody help on this please? ********************************************************************** The contents of this e-mail are confidential to the ordinary user(S) of the mail address(es) to which it was sent and may be legally privileged.
