Hi everyone
I want to change the system we have in the Hospital i work. We have a system based on Fox Pro, using their owns tables as data base (DBF tables), and we use them as Excel files to view the information. The thing is, i want to change some modules of the entire system implementing a system based on a .Net plataform. If i do this, can I still working to dbf tables even if i want to modify it with a .net system? if itsn't, do i have to change all the 'database' to an oracle, or sql or any other data base tool?
Obviously, after this, i want to implement datastage on the database system.
please help me
ps. sorry my english, i know is not good enough

What are you using DataStage for? To convert from DBF to Oracle tables? Do you have existing jobs reading the DBF tables?

The application reading or writing to these tables makes no difference to DataStage.
