My ESQL/C version is 5.01.TE1. I don't know about NT 3.51 but I've installed it under NT 4.0 Beta 2 and it worked as its still does with the release version. > > -- > Pedro Proen'a > ========================================================= > ppr@inix.pt pproenca@esoterica.pt Pedro_Proenca@msn.com > http://www.inix.pt > > "If anything can go wrong, fix it. To hell with Murphy." ESQL/c 7.x is a 32 bit driver and the 5.x is a 16 bit driver. If I'm going to use NT I'd rather go with the 32 bit. You can do two things: 1.- Install ESQL/c 7.x (I have 7.10TC1) under NT 3.51 and then upgrade to 4.0. 2.- Wait for Informix to make it for 4.0 which I was told should be out in a few weeks.
