Upgrade from Easytrieve Classic to Easytrieve Plus

Products

• Easytrieve Report Generator

Issue/Introduction

Regarding Easytrieve Classic programs which are not supported for decades, can these be run with the newer versions of 6.4 (not supported release) and 11.6 version of Easytrieve?

 

Easytrieve Classic is a completely different product and there is no runtime compatibility with Easytrieve (Plus). All programs will need to be recompiled and there are likely to be source code changes. A conversion utility that can handle most of the changes is available upon request from CA support.
