getting database information

I have a 10yr old ICL DRS machine with UNIX and informix on it.

Question:- Could i use ODBC or similar to get the information from the Informix database onto a Windows machine with Access?

If your Informix is farily recent you may be able to
get a wire-ODBC (i.e TCP/IP-based) driver for it.

Have a lot at www.datadirect-technologies.com
and elsewhere.
