Hi thegis, I did some tests. In my environment I have installed the following drivers.
oracle db2 h2 postgres mysql hsqld ms sqlserver jdbc.odbc bridge I get all this drivers in the combo box. I downloaded the informix driver and interestingly, this is the only one NOT appearing in the list. No idea what is going on. Could you choose another database for your tests ?
