How to transfer database files from PC to AS/400

["G.R.Srinivas" <srinivasgr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,
This may be a bit out of topic to some of you but this is related to
AS/400.
I would like to know how to transfer database files of other software
like dBase III, dBase IV, Oracle.. etc from PC to AS/400?
Thanx in advance.
Srinivas.
