I want to import to read and convert a database in .idb format . I was told that this file comes from a IBM tool used on indows 98. I do not know exactly from which tool.



I have the following files



a .idb file of 1Go size which was called directly by the application using this database with this call procedure
SERVER NAME=localhost:C:BELAIR3APPSERAPPSER.IDB



a .db file
a .lck file
a .mb file
a .px file



a .sql file with some procedures, here is the beginning:



CONNECT "localhost:C:BELAIR3appserAPPSER.IDB"
USER SYSDBA PASSWORD masterkey;
set term ^ ;

CREATE PROCEDURE CHERCHENOMDPP(
NUMERO INTEGER
)
RETURNS (
NOMDPP VARCHAR(50)
)
AS
DECLARE VARIABLE vnom VARCHAR(50);
DECLARE VARIABLE vprenom VARCHAR(50);
DECLARE VARIABLE vnombre INTEGER;
BEGIN
SELECT b_nom,b_prenom FROM DPPSER
WHERE b_numdpp = :numero
INTO :vnom, :vprenom;
if (vnom is null) then
nomdpp = "???";
else if (vprenom is null) then
nomdpp = vnom;
else
nomdpp = vnom||" "||vprenom;
SUSPEND;
END ^
