Tobias, Before pulling support for CSA, contact proquest.com and see if they have any plans to support the export of CSA. It is possible that they bought or somehow took over the Cambridge Science Abstracts and they might not have everything online. If they get queries/requests for the type they might just add/keep the support. On the other hand, it would be nice to know how many people are using it so that you know if it is even worth the effort...
EBo -- ps: I do not use CSA, but I have run into similar problems in the past...
