A LONG time ago, John Esak had a program he sold called FpWord - a nice
utility that pre-dates memo fields but added that functionality. He
compiled it for SCO only.
I ran across one of his customers today who has this program and is
migrating to Linux. I need to get all his data out of FpWord and into
a memo field.
Are there any users of this program out there?
I contacted John and he thinks he MAY have written an export or something
similar either for a single customer or left in the last compile of the
program. Either way, he doesn't have it now but suggested I try the fp
list.
My customer has the following binaries: fpwfind, fpwfree, fpwlic, fpwopen
and fpwshow. Based on the usage info on each, fpwshow might have been
able to do something if I could redirect it to a file, but my copy
of it just core-dumps so I can't get anywhere.
Looking for someone else who may have bought this program and has
either a working 'fpwshow' binary or some other export utility.
