Here's a sample script: sql = '''select msg_tx from dev_log''' import informixdb conn = informixdb.connect('mydb') cursor = conn.cursor() cursor.execute(sql) print 'description is <%s>' % cursor.description print cursor.fetchall() Output is: description is <('msg_tx', 'lvarchar', 0, 0, None, None, 1)> [('',), ('',), ('',), ('',), ('',), ('',)] But one of them should be: '''Something:SomethingElse - going for 221 possibilities [User: HOST-NAME\XYZZY]: Id OtherData 5878 C 5968 X 6732 V [many more lines like this] ''' Some hunting around, and I found this: C:\Program Files\Informix\Client-SDK\bin>esql IBM Informix CSDK Version 2.80, IBM Informix-ESQL Version 9.52.TC1 Not sure what IDS is... the Informix Server version is: 9.3 FC3, according to the DBA guy.
