    Please help.
    I've posted this on a few forums with no success!!

    A user runs a set up program located on the NT server. I want the program to prompt for the user name and enter this (and bits of other information) in an informix database using ODBC - then carry on with the setup. How do I get the server to do the ODBC call. I don't want to install the informix ODBC software and set up a DSN etc on all the clients PC's just on the server.

    thanks for any help,

    Rob

    If it were me, I would write a CGI script that records the input on the server and then have the clients launch http://yourserver/cgi-bin/script?fie...2=value2...etc

    Then the clients only need to have a web browser.
