Re: can't load informix extension. please help.

thanks a lot. your solution seems to work! I did look inside the DLL and found out about the referenced DLLs. but I still have a problem. I looks like I have an old version of the informix dll ...(7 something) and it requires 9a. that is, it requires the file isqlt09a.dll from the informix client. ( and I have isqlt07b.dll) I am currently downloading the latest one from informix.com ... I hope is not a NEWER version because I will end up with the same problem.
