Tony, Are you able to open the structure with a later version of 4D? In v14 the EXPORT STRUCTURE command was introduced: https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17.2/EXPORT-STRUCTURE.301-4386049.en.html which would get you the quickest representation of your structure, albeit in XML.
Otherwise it should only take a few minutes to crank out a custom method to produce an text output representation of your structure using the structure access commands: https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17.2/Structure-Access.201-4385958.en.html Unfortunately I don't have such method to hand though.
