Bernie,

Personally, I would upgrade to 6.5++ for DOS first and then convert to the
Windows platform.  That way you are not having to make 2 conversions at
once.  The upgrade to 6.5++ DOS will be pritty easy.

As far as importing and exporting fixed field files, there should be no
problem doing this.
Take a look at the load command to import your files, and to export them,
you can use unload, gateway, or select to get a fixed field file.

How are you doing it now?

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Export of ASCII Fixed file of table data


I have just begun the task of switching over from my very stable Rbase
4.5++ data bases to the Windows version of RB2000 (6.5++).  This might
be trivial, but I do not see that I can import or export an ASCII fixed
file as I am able to do in the DOS 6.5 version. I have a great number of
applications that expect a .FIX file structure as input. Is there any
way I can use the Windows version for ASCII fixed files?
