Any suggestions, Dear Kate, A very common problem is the permission set on $INFORMIXDIR/lib/sqlexec: it should be permissions owner group filename -rwsrwsrwx root informix sqlexec Otherwise, are the permissions on your .dbs directory: drwxrwx--- xxx informix and the files should be -rwxrwx--- ccc informix HTH and good luck... -- Cheers, Billy ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- New, improved, shorter .sig
