Migrating from Informix SQL to Informix Windows NT

Why Trust Us

Question:
Is it possible to migrate from Informix SQL to Informix for Windows NT?

Yes. Informix for Windows NT is now on version 7.31. This has the exact same functionality as 7.31 for UNIX.

UNLOAD to tablename.unl SELECT * from tablename

followed by

LOAD from tablename.unl INSERT into tablename;
