>>Hi,
>>
>>I need to convert data stored in files DATA.DF1 and DATA.DF2 to VFP data. The only thing I found on filext.com mentioning of some program, Omnis. Has anybody worked on this type of program and is familiar with files of extension .DF1/DF2?

>Can't you get more information from the holder of the data? Who owns the files? Were you given the files to convert? Do they exist in a backend or are they local files? The only file types with a .DF1 or .DF2 extension type that I am aware of are Omnis files. Omnis has many versions too. If you have the windows version of Omnis, there is an export data option under utilities. The files could be exported to dbase format in the past. I don't know what version you have but if a customer has Omnis, you could have them export them for you to dbase format or CSV.

Tracy,

Answer to your specific question. I don't have any version of Omnis but the prospective customer told me that they use a DOS application. So they must be using an older version of Omnis. Hopefully I can download some new version of Omnis and still open old files. I will probably not do much work until they give me a P.O.. But I wanted to give them some indication if I will be able to convert the data to my application. Or at least try.

Thank you.
