Multiple ODBC connections - only the SQL appears to work

(I searched on this but didn't see anything - sorry if I missed it)

I have a case where I need an ODBC connection to both SQL Server databases (2) and UniData/Informix (UNIX) files.

Individually, in separate ACCESS(2000) DBs the 2 connections work, so the backend mechanincs are OK. But when I try to use them all in the same ACCESS DB, I can't get at the UniData connection. I get a message that (SIC) the connection is no longer available.

Is only one ODBC driver allowed to be connected to an ACCESS2000 DB? Is this a bug? Is there a workaround?

Has anyone tried this sort of thing?
