I am, running baan b2 with is7 and informix as database , WIN NT 4 as O/s, I saw in my informix directory there is 1 file onstat.out of 177 MB in size & it was showing modified date as of year 2000, what is the file used for by informix ?

what is the use of this file ? Can i purge it or remove some entries from it. I think it would be too dificuilt for me to open it in notepad.

Is the text clear text with output from the onstat command?

My bet is that this file was a temporary monitoring using onstat {options} >> onstat.out. Take a look at it and the last values -- you may not need this file at (but just in case, move the file not delete it).
