Message-ID: <175@isieng.UUCP> Date: Wed, 13-Nov-85 19:50:01 EST Article-I.D.: isieng.175 Posted: Wed Nov 13 19:50:01 1985 Date-Received: Thu, 14-Nov-85 21:02:06 EST Reply-To: laurie@isieng.UUCP (Laurie Sefton) Distribution: na Organization: Integrated Solutions, San Jose, CA Lines: 13 Keywords: INFORMIX*, UNIFY* I am currently considering a switch from UNIFY(*) to INFORMIX(**). However, I have already invested a bit of time with data entry to the former. Is there any compatibility in the way that the data is stored between the two systems? Or is there a quick (or not so quick) editing fix I could use? At this point I weigh the possibility of re-entering data as equal to the future growth problems I am seeing with my current system. Thanks for any replies--if there is interest, I'll summarize and post the mail responses. Laurie Sefton Integrated Solutions {Integrated Solutions, as an organization, is non-committal on databases}
