SCO have drivers. Check out http://www.vision.sco.com There are also several others. The key differentiatior in ODBC drivers are whether they have a server side component or not. (They do not require I-Net from Informix. All you need is any engine and no extra connectivity products.) This makes it possible to implement a series of features that standard client only drivers can't do. The actual implementation of the features, quality, ease of installation and performance are of course also important. We are using the OpenLink drivers and are in the process of testing the onse from SCO.
