How about the Informix folk setting up a MAILING list.. and see where that goes...there are many (if not hundreds) of sites that have nothing to do with INFORMIX ... can't these Informix "discussions" be placed on a mailing list??? I'd be happy to assist in setting one up.. (soon to come an INGRES mail list) and I'd be more than happy to maintain a list-of-lists of database related mailing lists that can be periodically posted or sent out on demand???? whaddya think? - david -- ============================================================================== David K.
