SInce you have not informed us as to which engine (and version) you are running, only the tools [ISQL & 4GL], you should first run the dbschema command (see earlier postings) and then UNLOAD command (again, earlier postings). The engine is the product that usually has the dbexport executable with it. Not the Tools. And the engine used in the 2.10 area should have had the dbimport/dbexport utility.
