DataStage would be an option. I am not using it, but it would be the
cadillac solution. At the low, but excellent, end of the spectrum, I
would put Cedarville DOWNLOAD, which can also extact to xml, for
example IIRC.

Depending on your goal, something like Informer or MITS might fit the
bill too. I have a ton more information regarding ETL with UniData in
my head, but much of my information is now dated (we are now using
Cache' rather than UniData), so I'll just leave it at that.  --dawn
