Dump all Raima db_VISTA Version 3.20 data to text

Question

A friend has an old program that no longer works but he wants to recover the data.

From the file's header I've found out that it's a legacy Raima db_VISTA Version 3.20 database. I've found this similar question How can I export data in a legacy DOS application when no export option is available?, but there's no answer that tell me how to dump the data to another format.

I've tried contacting Raima, but the forums seams dead (My topic wasn't even posted by the moderator)

Do you know a tool that can help me export the data?

Answer 1

Raima has a program called dbexp.exe that can dump all raima data to text files. Can you search to see if you have any of the Raima utilities?

Answer 2

1. Ask for an evaluation here. The dbexp.exe utility will be there.
2. Its documentation is here.

Here is a post that explains what you want to do with an answer of Douglas Wilson (Raima) : http://forum.raima.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1313

I hope it will help you.
