<< Have you used CLI with VFP? >>

No, not yet! Sorry about the delay in responding, but I thought
I did reply and find now it didn't get here. God knows where that
message went. Somebody out there is probably scratching his
head. <g>

What OS are you running VFP under that it only sees the 32-bit
stuff? I'm curious only because Informix did tell me that I could use the 16-bit ODBC driver and CLI under 32-bit OS. Maybe they have a
tech note or something on how to do that. Have you questioned
your local Informix rep about that procedure or maybe tried to see
if they have a faxback system to get an answer to that?

My copy of I-Net is still on order with Informix in Atlanta. They say
they have a minimum of $99 for maintenance fees *after* my rep
told me a one year maintainance fee on CLI was $79. Any snafu
to hold up a purchase order shipment.

Once I finally get God's gift to database connectivity <g>, I will be
diligently pursuing the details on this, too. I will be using VFP3.0b
under Windows 3.11 to connect to Informix Ver 7.21 (I think) under
HP-UX. What a convoluted trip!

Hope you get yours working soon, or at least long before I get my
shipment from Informix.
