[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Chart Import Problem with Freelance Plus

tep@mitre-bedford.ARPA (Thomas E. Price) (08/11/88)

I am looking for a way to import data into the Lotus Freelance Plus chart
generation function that isn't in Lotus 1-2-3 or dBase format.  It appears
from the documentation and the little time that I have had to experiment,
that only .WKS and .DBF files are available for direct import into a chart.
I would like to take an ASCII data file (exported from an ORACLE DBMS) and
generate a chart using Freelance Plus.

Anyone aware of any standalone utilites (public domain, shareware, etc.) that
would perform a conversion  from ASCII to Lotus 1-2-3 or dBase format.  Any
other suggestions? I don't want to go into dBase or Lotus to utilize the
internal import functions.

Please e-mail any suggestions.  Thanks in advance!!

TTFN,
