Unfortunately I don't have any of the tools mentioned here and it is not
feasible to get any of the tools. Currentely, I am unloading the data in
the table to a flat file with mainframe tool than ftp (text file, not
binary) to Unix. The Oracle people, however, complained that the format is
inconsistent, the space between each column is inconsistent. Some
characters cannot be read. (I believe that is because unreadable charactor
is some of the data). In mainframe side, the data is consistent.
