Database conversion

[RGregoire]

Does anyone remember that old database program Q&A?

I have a customer who is currently using that program and now wishes to convert their data to Microsoft Access.

I know thru VB you can access many different database formats, but I have been unable to get any info on accessing a Q&A database file.

If anyone out there has any info on accessing a Q&A database file thru VB, or if it is possible, I would appreciate any and all help.

Currently my plan is to save the Q&A database file into a text file and then use that text file to move information from it to the Access database.

Thanks in advance.

Try this out. It is a good place to start. It will give you file formats on just about any file type.

www.wotsit.org - The Programmers file format collection.


It is a long-shot but worth a look.
