.com Solutions Inc. has updated FmPro Migrator 1.62 Enterprise Edition with additional Perl CGI scripting capability for Access and SQL Server databases
January 12, 2004 (Press Release) --
1-14-2004 - Fremont, CA - .com Solutions Inc. releases FmPro Migrator 1.62 Enterprise Edition - Update generates Perl CGI scripts for FileMaker databases migrated to Access and SQL Server.
FmPro Migrator is a MacOS X application ($50) which migrates FileMaker databases to MySQL, Oracle, Access, SQL Server, Sybase and DB2.
.com Solutions Inc. has updated FmPro Migrator 1.62 Enterprise Edition with additional Perl CGI scripting capability. Database and web developers can now instantly generate Perl CGI scripts for each layout within FileMaker databases migrated to Microsoft Access and Microsoft SQL Server.
Improvements incorporated into this latest release include:
Saving money on ODBC drivers - The Perl CGI scripts generated by FmPro Migrator can save web developers thousands of dollars per UNIX web server which would normally be required for licensing ODBC drivers. The licensing costs for ODBC driver software is typically between $3000 and $10,000 per production web server. Perl CGI scripts generated for Access and SQL Server databases for Linux/UNIX/MacOS X web servers utilize open source Perl DBI:Proxy software which eliminates the need for ODBC drivers to be installed on each web server. Each Perl CGI script makes a DBI:Proxy connection to the database server and utilizes the ODBC drivers which were installed on the database server when the database was originally installed.
SQL Server Migration Script Improvements - The SQL Server database table name is now specified in a fully qualified manner within the Perl ODBC scripts. This enhancement enables the migration scripts to work correctly even if the database name is not specified within the SQL Server ODBC DSN.
Perl CGI Script Improvements - Perl CGI scripts generated by FmPro Migrator now incorporate improvements including the addition of "Integers Only" data validation.
FmPro Migrator GUI Improvements - The FmPro Migrator graphical interface has been improved by allowing the loading of configuration files with file names exceeding 31 characters in length. Additional improvements include allowing the use of underscore characters within database username fields, and the automatic entry of TCP/IP port numbers whenever making a selection from the database menu.
Existing customers holding licenses for FmPro Migrator Enterprise Edition may upgrade at no charge to this latest revision. Existing customers of the Lite and STD editions of FmPro Migrator may upgrade to the Enterprise Edition for the difference in price between the products.
FmPro Migrator utilizes specialized features of MacOS X, therefore it is available only for MacOS X. A free demo version of FmPro Migrator may be downloaded from www.fmpromigrator.com
