Re: Data transfer from System i to .DBF format

   SEQUEL can do this without doing any programming. Create your view of the
   data you need, then run the EXECUTE command to output the data in *DBASE
   format.

     Subject: Data transfer from System i to .DBF format

     We may purchase a software package which will accept transaction data
     from our MRP system.  There are special file formats which must be
     populated in order for this package to be able to read the data
     downloaded from the System i.

     Their software wants the data downloaded to a "TransAct.DBF" file - from
     which then they will pick out the data and process it.

     I looks like the .DBF is a FoxPro or Dbase database format.  

     How would I get the System i5 data into this format - without too much
     hassle?
