<div class="section" id="relnotes__problems"><h2 class="title sectiontitle">Known problems</h2>
<div class="p">At time of publication, the following problems
were known: <ul class="ul"><li class="li">When you use the <span class="keyword">IBM Informix ODBC Driver</span> to
perform distributed transactions that use the Microsoft Transaction Server, turn off
session pooling for the Microsoft OLE
DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (MSDASQL). This property can be set in
the application by adding the value "OLE DB Services=-4" in the connection
string. Setting the property turns off session pooling and autoenlistment
in the MSDASQL OLE DB provider, and allows the pooling and autoenlistment
to occur in the <span class="keyword">IBM Informix ODBC Driver</span></li>
