We have recently purchased Informix on a large Encore and we are interested in 3rd party tools which might work with Informix to o add typesetting to our reports, o facillitate creation of input screens, and o facillitate creation of reports. Informix itself has both a report writer and a form generator which aren't bad, but they fall far short of what one might expect if one were creating screens and documents on a Macintosh, for example. Do 3rd parties provide 4GL code generators for Informix better than the ones Informix provides? How do people get typesett reports out of Informix? Stick in (yuk) troff commands (oh, brother... Welcome to 1978...). Thanks for your help. -- =============================================================================== Tom Hampton, Mgr.
