3-5-2003 - FmPro Migrator Released
Fremont, CA - .com Solutions Inc. releases FmPro Migrator 1.01.
FmPro Migrator generates the scripts required for migrating
FileMaker to Oracle within a few seconds. FmPro Migrator implements
a simple
user interface containing 2 folder tabs of information to be entered
in order to perform the migration of FileMaker database structure and
data to Oracle.
FmPro Migrator is available in two versions, Lite and
STD Editions. FmPro Migrator Lite Edition utilizes CSV or TAB delimited
export files to migrate relatively small datasets from FileMaker Pro.
The Lite edition is perfect for FileMaker developers who may just want
to generate database structure reports for a few existing FileMaker
Pro databases.
FmPro Migrator STD Edition adds the following additional
features:
Migration
of large text fields and image data to Oracle - FileMaker Pro database
fields containing more than 4000 characters of text are migrated to
Oracle CLOB columns - supporting up to 4 billion characters per record.
Image data within FileMaker Pro container fields is migrated directly
to Oracle BLOB columns through a network connection. No manual data
entry is required for processing either of these specialized datatypes.
Support
for specifying stand-alone FileMaker Pro solutions files - Migration
scripts and database structure reports may also be generated for stand-alone
FileMaker Pro solution applications compiled for the MacOS platform.
Processing
of up to 50 open FileMaker Pro databases - Migration scripts and documentation
files are generated for all open FileMaker Pro database files. This
feature can be utilized to quickly produce documentation of database
structure for large numbers of existing FileMaker Pro solutions.
FmPro Migrator utilizes specialized features of MacOS
X, therefore it is available only for MacOS X. A free demo
version of FmPro Migrator may be downloaded from www.dotcomsolutionsinc.net/downloads/index.html.
