I have a client who is running progress V8.3b, on windows server 2000, I need to export the table content, to extract the suppliers list and customer list, on another type of SQL data base, otherwise I am into typing them manually?

You can for example output the data in tabular format (csv, pipe separated, tab-separated, ....)

define stream sOut.
define variable cFileName as char no-undo.

assign
cFileName = session:temp-dir + "myname.csv".

output stream sOut to value(cFileName).
for each customer :
export stream sOut customer.
end.
output stream sOut close.
