Can IDS accessing Informix SE Tables.

Hello, Now we are using Informix SE. We are planning to go Infomix Dynamic Server 9.x. Before migrating our current applications to IDS 9.x., first we have to develop a new application in IDS 9.x, in that we need to use some of the tables from informx SE. Could you please answer me the following questions: 1. Can Informix Dynamic Server 9.x accessing Informix SE tables? 2. Can Informix Dynamic server 9.x creating synonyms on Informix SE Tables? Thanks in advance. Thanks Rao

Out fo the box - No. Add C-ISAM Datablade, and Yes. Q2: With the C-ISAM Datablade, you would not be creating synonyms really - you'd be using an IDS table that happens to be stored in C-ISAM files. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@us.ibm.com) STSM, Informix Database Engineering, IBM Data Management 4100 Bohannon Drive, Menlo Park, CA 94025 Tel: +1 650-926-6921 Tie-Line: 630-6921 "I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it!" forum.subscriber@iiug.org wrote on 07/09/2004 11:33:37 AM: > Now we are using Informix SE.
