Subject: RE: [SQL] Converting clarion
If you have access to the Clarion database tools then it's really a pretty trivial task to export scripts to somthing more readable.
If you don't have access to any of the tools that created your database, eg. you are coverting a client off a TPS based DB to a PostgreSQL DB, you've got a problem.
TPS seems to be closly guarded file format. I have not been able to find any publicly avalible information or utils to help. -( other than there is not help. )
There are ODBC drivers for TPS files avalible (http://www.softvelocity.com/products/pr_database_tsodbc.htm) They cost somewhere in the order of $250USD
There are a couple of applications that can extract data from the TPS files and export then as flatfiles, but these are quite hard to get hold of as they are part of the Clarion tool set. - Clarion programmers are your friends...
Still, the ODBC Driver is probably your best bet as it allows 'no-mess no-fuss' dumping of your data directly into Postgres. ;)
