You've hit on the only bit of support it needs - INFORMIXDIR for GLS. Off-hand, I'm not sure whether it is $INFORMIXDIR or /usr/informix or /usr/gls -- but the options are limited and not very hard to work out. Note that it is normally installed with the header in /usr/include, the library (static only AFAIK) in /usr/lib, the executables (bcheck) in /usr/bin and the GLS support in - I think - /usr/gls, but I'm ready to be proved wrong on that. -- Jonathan Leffler #include <disclaimer.h> Email: jleffler@earthlink.net, jleffler@us.ibm.com Guardian of DBD::Informix v2003.04 -- http://dbi.perl.org/
