Thanks. I did some digging around and that's kind of the feeling that I
got (no standard way to do it). For now I've decided to wimp out. My
app is basically just a data collection app, so I'll just use the
default Backup conduit and then write a translator to read the PDB file
and write the data to a CSV file. That has the added benefit of
(hopefully) being a simple port between Unix and Windows.
