Loading Sequence.d and Users.d

[Maviee]

Hello,

we're currently working on a migration from one ERP system to it's successor. Both, the new and old version use the progress database as a foundation. We have to dump and load the whole database in the migration process and that's where our problems start. We have to dump and load the contents in our old version, which uses Progress V9.1E.

Dumping the .df and .d files of the users and sequences are no problem, works great. We have problems with loading it by a program. Our appoach to load the files looks like this for the sequence file:

run prodict/load_d.p (INPUT "SEQUENCE", INPUT "_seqvals.d").

This however doesn't work and we're unable to find information how to load the file by script.

It would be great if you guys could help us, as we really need to get this done by a programm, thus automatically without user input.

Thanks in advance
Mav

Sequences need a custom written program - there are no dynamic sequences in v9.

Unless you have to do this to dozens of databases it is easier to do it manually.
