I really need to get ODBC working to my Win98 client PC. I've been trying to get the SCO/Informix-7 OpenLink drivers working but no luck yet. If anyone gets ODBC happening could they please post the magic formula here and share their success with the rest of us !! Are you aware that SE 7.2 is network ready? i.e. it comes with INET built in. You just have to fire off the sqlexecd daemon after setting up the network files.
