I have indeed performed such a migration, from unix uniData 3.3 to Windows
uniData 6.0.9.  However, I took a wacky approach, and wrote a series of
handshaking programs on both machines.  To summarize severely, I had a
program on the host machine traverse every single file and dict.file in the
host system and copy export single record to a directory in unix.  This
directory was visible to our Windows box through the magic of Samba, and a
program on the destination computer monitored the directory and performed
the necessary importing.

The biggest snafu was with record IDs that had odd characters in them,
especially the asterisk.

It was a slow process, but an interesting one, and it was quite successful.
