There used to be a system called California Software. I used it to
convert S/36 to PC back in another life. It's not really a conversion,
but rather a S/36 environment. The data is kept in dbase files. There
was a second one named Lattice I think. The two are/were very similar.
Maybe Yahoo could turn up something on one of them.
