Hello Ken, For such an old database probably it is too much to ask for a JDBC driver. But if you can find an ODBC driver the conversion is very easy: the ODBC driver connects to the JDBC-ODBC bridge which can be set in <oXygen/> as the driver that fetches the data for the database import operation (menu File -> Import -> Database data). If the Notebook database is able to export data as plain text another way of conversion is to export the data as text and develop a custom XSLT 2.0 stylesheet for the conversion to XML. Best regards, Sorin Ken Beesley wrote:

Beginner Question

I have a large database in an old DOS text-database management format called Notebook (from Pro/Tem Software).

I'd like to convert that old database into XML. Has anyone already done this with oXygen?

Thanks,

Ken
