I don't know about this tool, at least some marveluos tool.
The only tool that makes generic data & metadata transport is the DataPump
that comes with Delphi or BCB but with the Enterprise version. It relies on
the BDE.
My personal opinion is that automatic conversions may be a nightmare. I
prefer to do the work of adjusting metadata myself, then apply a program
that reads and writes ODBC (for example, OLE/DB or other paths can work,
too, depending on the drivers offered for IB) and that transport the data
with some utility of custom-made program.
If you post here the data types of Informix and what they mean (in terms of
range, restrictions, applicability and other useful information), I can tell
you the equivalent in Interbase. Then, you can get your metadata script and
use a text editor to replace Informix types by IB types if need.
