   Yes, i tried using the ODBC driver. That one works but all the data models   
   are lost when switching to the odbc driver. Also the programs do not behave   
   the same way as with informix sql links. To get the forms and reports   
   running again would mean to go through every form and to fix the behaviour   
   which is too much effort for staying in paradox.   
      
   Ciao, Dirk.
