The response has been of a "shareware" form. I have had experiance with a compercial data modeling tool. This tool gives the user enough flexibility to model any relational database in as much detail that they can stand. This tool is called Software Through Pictures (STP). Its not cheap, but if your serious about ERD's and data flow diagrams, for my money it is the way to go. I think that the makers of STP (Interactie De * vleopment Environments) also have a working relationship with Informix, but I'm not sure. * I have also had experience with IDE's Software Through Pictures. It is a flexible tool in many areas, such as reporting and rules enforcement. I would also appreciate info on version control and testing tools for Informix. -- Jennifer Berak email: 4gen!warlok!jenb Analyst/Project Manager jenb@sherwood.com Sherwood Systems (A division of Sherwood Manufacturing) (602)230-8188 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
