Bill,

The help I need is not really with the kit but with just a few Informix = basics. I have never worked with Informix and there is nolonger anyone = here that has either(or won't admit to it anyway). The scripts supplied by = the Oracle kit use dbadmin to interface with the database. I have no clue = how to use this product and I'm running it against a production system. Do = I need to logon as the Informix UNIX user and then run dbadmin? When I run = it as annother user I get not connected errors, here is an example of the = run=20
=20
" dbaccess database_name script.sql"

Is there anything resembling sqlplus available for interacting with the = database?

Thanks

I have done an Informix to Oracle conversion, but I'm not sure what the Oracle conversion kit is. I wrote my own conversion.
