Re: Powerbuilder 3 w/ Informix-connect 7 ?

You are using a 16 bit application with a 32 bit connectivity product. That won't work. You should move back to the 16 bit SetNet and connect as if you were connecting version 5. Your DBMS setting for Informix 5X should be "IN5" if using the older SetNet. Your DBMS setting for Informix 7X should be "IN7" is using the 7 connection. Other than SetNet itself, that's all the PB changes you'll need to make. And, it's been a while since I've done PB3, so I'm not certain on this one, but I don't think you need LDLLSQLW.DLL at all! Rename it and see.
