We have all stuck our neck out at times to help each other, and occasionally been wrong with our advice. No one likes the pain of being demolished when bad information leaks out. Personally, i'd feel a *lot* lonlier informix-wise without this list, and think this forum has been a tremendous amount of help. I'd much rather someone take a stab a helping, than be so worried about the consequences of being wrong, they never lend a hand. For that, I commend Jonathan for his valuable comments, along with Colonel Panic (always loved that name), June Tong, Jack, Dave Kosenko, and all the other regulars for their energy and effort about our sometimes critical problems.
