Wow, I have not heard that name in a while.

I had to convert a client off ThoroughBred to a Universe base ERP system
many years ago.  We never did find a good, direct export function.
Instead we printed reports to text files then used a product called
Monarch to map these files and covert the data to a format we could import
into U2.  A bit tedious yes, but it worked fairly well.

Subject: [U2] ThoroughBred to U2 file conversion

Hi guys:

I am looking at dumping data held in a ThoroughBred system, which I
understand uses its own ISAM/B-Tree file access methods, to delimited flat
ascii so that I can then upload onto a U2 database (Universe 10 under AIX
5.2)

Does anyone know of software which will do this or is there anyone out
there who has done it  and could point us in the right direction ?
