There was a utility package that was used by UniData services - it used various Unix tools to convert the Dictionaries (you needed a full compiler).
Worth an ask....... UCONV3 I think. It converted *accounts* save in old format BTW - not just Dictionaries. To be honest - when I've done Dictionary conversions (many) for ODBC even just in UniData - I find so many just-plain-wrong dictionaries that don't reflect the data as it is I have to do the lot manually in any case. Check S really is S, MV really is MV, SV really is SV, All MV and SV have PHRASES (etc, etc).

For example, changing Tfilename;X;n;m functions to TRANS and like conversions. I am in the process of opening up hundreds of files to ODBC; before reinventing the wheel, just checking to see if the wheel has already been made. I did not see such a utility on pickwiki. If such a utility is for sale, that would be good to know as well. Feel free to contact me off-list if you are more comfortable doing so..
