Hi Nuno
There is a cheaper alternative available called Case Studio 2. The reverse
engineering for Informix is very fast. I think is good enough.
My experience with Visio is that it is not at all happy with all types of
Informix objects and that the database diagrams are more of an add-on and
therefore not as robust as the rest of the application..
