=09I can't find documentation to prove it, but since the
=09usual format of the statement is 'CREATE PROCEDURE ...'
=09and the export made it 'CREATE FORMAT71 PROCEDURE ...',
=09my gut feeling is that there is a difference in the way
=097.0 and 7.1 deal with procedures, and the export file
=09uses this extra word to tell import what to do.  Since=20
=09the 7.0 import knows nothing about 7.1 format (or whatever
=09that keyword means), I have to agree that you may need
=09at least the exp/imp from 7.1 to read the file.=20

=09Good Luck !
