"Which" 4GL Relational Database Management System? It may use a proprietary file type for which you may have to have that database's engine to export the file. What are the file extensions on the data files? If they are unfamiliar you can check them here; http://extsearch.com/ You may be able to import them directly into MySQL (see http://www.mysql.com/doc/m/y/mysqlimport.html ) HTH!
