What makes you think that the NT version of Informix is not as good as the Unix version ? We work here with both environments. The NT version runs fine. We have installations with some GB's of data. We have only little problems with them. In most cases these problems belong to NT and not to Informix. Tell me what your problems look like. Perhaps I can help.
