Re: Office/400 Document Conversion

[Don <dr2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Let me take this a step further... 

We've got a client that's made the transition from OV/400 to
Wordperfect...  Now the hitch...they want to be able to import via ODBC
fields direct from the PF/LF's on the 400 into their documents...  I've
not been able to find anyone that knows how to do this...  ANy ideas?? CAN
it be done??

Don in DC metro...
