delphi 3.0 client/server and informix?

is anyone using delphi 3's native links to informix? we are currently using
2.0 and odbc and are wondering if it is worth the upgrade to c/s. please
let me know your opinions.

We have seen problems with Delphi 2 and Informix CLI 2.5 ODBC with BLOBfields.

These problems did not occur with Delphi 2 C/S and SQL Links for Informix with
I-Connect. Performance is also better.

But it seems that you have to uninstall CLI and install I-Connect instead
because otherwise you could(will) have problems with the Informix ISQLT07C.DLL.
These problems also occurred with non-Delphi apps that use the native drivers
with CLI installed, so it is not a Delphi problem.

We use IConnect + New ODBC Drivers from Intersolv {Ver 3.0} + ODBCExpress.
Performance is much better than using the BDE with native drivers.

Download a trail copy at www.odbcexpress.com and check for yourself.
