At this moment our company uses an Iformix database. The software has originally been developed on a German CTM-mainframe (ITOS). Currently everything (data and software) has been transferred on a Windows NT network. We are not using a client/server environment, just file sharing. I found the name "Informix" by using the program BCheck. All files are C-Isam files : >BCHECK C-ISAM B-tree Checker version 1.07 >Copyright (C) 1981-1988 Informix Software, Inc. Maybe we start to develop our own software, so we have the following questions : - Is it possible to "import" of connect our existing files in a client/server environment ? - Which server-soft, including optional software do we need ? - Is it possible to make a ODBC-connection to the existing files ? Thanks in advance for your response !
