  I need to create a linked server from MS SQL to an Informix database. When I read the IBM available documentation:

  http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21195578

  which indicates:

  BEFORE YOU BEGIN

  You must have the IBM® Informix OLEDB Provider installed and setup.

  So... first things first... where (exactly - a specific URL would be appreciated) can I find this provider - preferably with installation instructions???

  Thanks

  Glenn
