The engineer you spoke >with obviously cared enough to work on the problem from his own home; as a You may think that working at home is a sign of support, I think of it as a sign that either the engineer is overworked meaning that Informix is cutting corners in support by having too few hands, or the engineer is lazy at work and has to take the spill home. I have a strong feeling the reason is not the latter. MEANWHILE, I still have a $2,000.00 software that does not do what it is supposed to do; my machine and my client's machine hangs up!!!!! when we try to delete password. Informix has refused to give support on this bug for reasond best known to Informix and its workers. Lastly, Please do not buy Infromix products, their tech support stinks. WHY? They wanted me to buy support before I can get help on a BUG that hangs up my machine EVEN ON THE SECOND DAY OF PROCUREMENT!!! Of course, I did not. WHAT HAPPENED? Nothing.
