Hello! I need to access a table in an Informix database from within a Progress procedure. Progress and Informix reside on two different machines connected by ethernet. Both machines run UNIX of some flavour. The Progress machine is probably HPUX while Informix runs on an SCO machine. Are there Progress and/or Informix and/or 3rd party products available that can do the above? (I need to do INSERTs on the Informix table) I assume that I need some piece of software on both ends. Is there some standard interface that could be used? (ISAM comes to mind) Any information about such software, its capabilities and limitations and first hand experience is welcome. Replies by email please! -Walter wd@infodn.rmi.de
