Trouble in INFORMIXSERVER

I am helping a client make their Informix 4gl Time & Attendance system y2k compliant (it runs on UNIX). They bought this package from a vendor that no longer supports it. The problem we are having is that we can't compile when the program accesses a database. The first problem we had was that there was no SQLHOSTS file. The DBA set one up, but now we get the error that the INFORMIXSERVER variable is not set. We know how to set the variable, but the dba does not know what it should be set to (I don't believe he set the sqlhost file up correctly either). Is there any place we could go to find out what the variable value should be? -**** Posted from RemarQ, http://www.remarq.com/?b ****- Real Discussions for Real People
