Now I have just upgraded a progranm suite FROM a 90's machine to a newer one. I have CISAM 7.2 and ESQLC etc etc I cannot compile my old programs that READ C-Isam files and loaded them into an Informix databse by using the old programs. So now my big question is - how can I get the same functionality? How can I get the data from C-Isam files into an Informix db? This is not a one-off need. I regularly need to load tables from C-Isam files! HELP!!!
