OT: ASCII to DBF converter for SCO

filePro 5.0.08
SCO 5.0.5

I have a customer that wanted server side ODBC.
Obviously, that is not an option.

I've tried creating an alien filePro file and 
placed the key on an NFS partition and named it
'key.csv'.

Now, when I try to link a table (in access), I'm
getting some problems with trying to link an ODBC
data source using a text driver.  (I must not have
the correct driver version).

In any event, he suggested that he may be able to
work with the data if it was in an dbf format.  I
guess I would just do a system in filePro and try
to convert to dbf upon the user saving the record.

Is there something out there that can convert ASCII
to dbf for SCO?

Thanks!
Georgio
