If you're considering going through the pain of converting, you might
be better off going with CA-OpenROAD.  It's still a 4GL, so your
development time should stay short, and it talks to Oracle, Ingres and
SQL Server databases.  Ask your CA rep, there may even be some tools
to help migrate from ABF.
