GOAL:
How to load a data file (.d) generated in Progress 9.x into a Progress 8.x database.
FIX:
The -numsep and -numdec parameters were introduced in version 9. These parameters are included in the trailer of the data files. To be able to load the version 9.x data files into a version 8.x database, the trailer needs to be modified as showed below. This also includes replacing 'cpstream' with 'codepage'.
Version 9.1D:
PSC
filename=Customer
records=0000000000083
ldbname=sports
timestamp=2002/11/11-14:56:15
numformat=46,44
dateformat=dmy-1950
map=NO-MAP
cpstream=ISO8859-1
Version 8.3E:
PSC
filename=Customer
records=000000083
ldbname=sports
timestamp=2002/11/11-14:58:15
numformat=,
dateformat=dmy-1950
map=NO-MAP
codepage=iso8859-1
Note: This method has not been fully tested and thus is not supported. Always verify that your data has been loaded correctly before putting the database into production.
