The Forecross® Convert/IDMS-DB product line is a fully
automated Migration solution that converts your existing IDMS/DB programs, data and
databases into ready-to-test applications supporting any ANSI standard SQL
environments including DB2, Oracle, Informix or Sybase. The converted applications are
functionally identical to their IDMS counterparts. The Forecross automated IDMS Migration
reduces the time, cost and risk associated with other conversion alternatives and results
in consistent, error-free, standardized code.
