Hi, Jack,

We'd need to hear about which brand, model and version of database you are actually using. Is it by chance dBase II, dBase III or dBase III+ ?

The older systems had rather simple file structures, most of which are documented and supported in some way.

I am a bookseller with some 20,000 items held in great detail in a bibliographical data base inside MSDOS (I am talking about some 20 MB of laboriously acquired and entered information). Being on MSDOS is also the reason I don't have a website.

If I were to go onto OPEN OFFICE, would I be able to transfer that information, without corruption, across to Open Office ?

   I look forward to reading all and any useful comments.
