No problem, except that you'll have to rewrite to use DBI/DBD when upgrading to a newer Online (7.X). The build should be pretty straightforward. Seem to recall some troubles with libraries. If you get complaints about missing libraries, check with nm(1) under $INFORMIXDIR/lib and include the missing libraries in the linker command line in the Makefile. -- 'yvind Gjerstad Systems dept Tollpost-Globe AS N-6301 'ndalsnes/Norway E-mail: ogj@it.tollpost.no Phone: +47 7122 6663 Fax: +47 7122 6694
