May I know if there is any chance to download Adodb v5.22 as it is the last version that can connect to Foxpro 9 table.
Thanks

tl;dr - How can I extract database information from an Oracle 3.x database server when the tools today don't support it?
I have a customer who neglected upgrades across the board (Win Server 2003, Oracle 3x, etc..yes, I know this is wrong across the board but It's my job to clean it up) and I need to extract the database information from the databases on this server for importing into something more modern.
I've checked the Oracle and non oracle db GUI applications and they oldest they go back is version 7. I've looked on Google and here and I have yet to find some sort of solution for data extraction. Do I need to ping Oracle for a version of their Gui application that will work with Version 3? Is there a code solution? I'm stumped.
That did the trick #littlefoot I also looked at the following:

Our team has been using Microsoft Access 2010 as a frontend for an SQL Server 2014, and are dependent on the Upsizing Wizard in Access to migrate tables from Access to SQL.
For example, if there is an SQL database named papers, our team has an Access file named papers_temp.accdb. When we want to make changes to a given table (or create a new table) in the papers database, we do this locally in papers_temp.accdb before using the upsizing wizard to migrate the given table from Access to the SQL database, overwriting the table in SQL if it already exists.
From Office 2013 and Access 2013, the Upsizing Wizard is gone, and we are in need of an alternative. Is there a similar tool available for Access 2016, or do we have to adapt to something else entirely? So far open to suggestions.
SQL Server Migration Assistant for Access
I've been exploring this program for the last couple of days, after finding many recommendations for it on the web. It appears to be able to do the upsizing and migration that we need.
However, more often that not, when attempting to select (and load) a table, the program is stuck in a loading process that never seems to end (tried waiting for one hour), meaning I'm forced to close SSMA without saving my project. In general, the program does not seem very stable, and we'd prefer to find a solution that was more familiar to work with.
Perhaps I'm missing something?
Correct, the upsizing wizard has been deprecated and the replacement is (SSMA).
The latest version as of today is:
Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant 8.5 for Access
https://aka.ms/ssmaforaccess
In my testing I have learned that it is not compatible with the 2019 O365 version of DAO and you cannot install the correct version of DAO along side O365. This means that this solution is dead in the water. Microsoft has updated us in to a corner where we can't use any of their previous solutions on the latest version of Access. At this point I think we are waiting for MS to update the tools to support the latest version of O365 Access.
If you are stuck in this boat with us the only other option is 3rd party software.
I would like to migrate a instance of SQL Server/11.0.3.2 to Sybase 11.9.2 (i want use SSMA after that). There is no documentation on this subject on the web because it's too old (1997).
I only want migrate 3 databases of my instance. I try to dump a db to Sybase 12.5.4, not work, ddlgen not work on 11.0.3.2. With the system table, i can recreate the SQL script for table, view, procedure... and then i bcp the data. But i think it's not a good way, it's too long and not safe...
An other solution: upgrade the server to 11.9.2 (or more), but as i say, i only want migrate 3 databases.
If sombody have an other way to do that, it's will be a great help.
Thank in advance.
You should be able to take a database dump from 11.0.3 and load it into a later ASE version. It is not formally supported, but I have done this successfully for ASE 12.5.
I'm hoping this question is appropriate for here, but, I'm running out of options.
I have come across a Sybase 8 database from c. 2000. I'm being asked to get it up and running; however, even using Sybase Anywhere 16 won't allow me to connect to the .db file.
My experience with Sybase is from a long time ago. Can anyone suggest or know of a way to get it up and running or even get it upgraded? Ideally I'd like to export the database and get it out of Sybase and into another DBMS.
Thanks in advance.
Databases from version 9 or older of SQL Anywhere must be reloaded in order to be use with SQL Anywhere 10 or higher. You will need to use the dbunload utility to reload the database into a new database and then you can use it with SQL Anywhere 16.
You can do something like: dbunload -c uid=myuser;pwd=mypassword;dbf=old.db -an new.db to create a new database from the old one. There are other dbunload switches for dealing with page size, encryption, and other options.
Disclaimer: I work for SAP in SQL Anywhere engineering.
I am using SQL Anywhere 17, but I believe you can do the same in Sybase Central 16.
I am new in delphi 2007. I need to connect with SQL Server and update , insert and delete DB values from my local database(SQLServer) through DBExpress. Anyone can help step to step guide from scratch if anyone has usefull tutorial. kindly send the link. Thanks
Here is a link for you. A Guide to Using dbExpress in Delphi database applications
In past our company had many issues with dbExpress. So, I will not recommend dbExpress for the serious database application development. 2 years ago we started to look around for an alternative and purchased Anydac. Works great with SQL Server and other DB's. Actually, there are few others 3d party libraries. So, consider to try them.
Sorry for blowing my own trumpet, but I've written a few blog entries about converting BDE based applications to dbExpress. True, my target was Firebird and not SQLServer, but that shouldn't matter too much.
I too use Delphi 7.
