We have Lotus 1-2-3 for the Sun and Informix-SE (Standard Engine).  We
also have the Lotus DataLens Developer Toolkit which is way to build a
driver which can be linked into 1-2-3 to give access to databases.  Is
any one else working on a DataLens link to Informix? ... if so maybe
we could collaborate.   An Informix spokesperson said that there is no
interest in Informix to link their database product to 1-2-3 (probably
motivated by their self interest with the WingZ product).
