If you buy Informix-OnLine 7 (fully featured), it costs $1500/seat. If you buy Informix-OnLine WorkGroup Server (a few minor trims), it costs $300/seat. WGS is designed to compete with SQLServer and the like. Clearer? HTH. -- Ciao, Billy Nose to the ground and ear to the grindstone in: Dubai. Soon to be back in the Murder Capital of the World!!
