I found it easy enough to get the export, but getting the data to import was never achieved following the docs or any other round reference. It'll be easier and quicker to use one of several free tools to move the data.

If you mean another FB database, you want to use:


5.5.5 Export Into Flat-Files
FrontBase can export an entire database, schema definitions and contents, into flat files in ASCII format
from which a database can later be rebuilt.
Two purposes of the flat-file export/import functionality are:
1. Backup and Restore of a database in ASCII form.
2. Porting of a database between platforms of different "endian" type (big-endian/little-endian). The following SQL 92 statements will respectively export and import a complete database:
WRITE ALL OUTPUT(DIR='<path-to-export-directory>', CONTENT=TRUE);

SCRIPT <path-to-export-directory>/schema.sql;

This approach is described fully in the section “Enhanced Flat-File Import and Export Functions” on page
88.

The Frontbase site is not available right now, so I figured I'd turn here for help...

Does anyone know how to dump data out of one FB database for use in another?
