Excel Connect to Accpac Dos

[AccpacToAccess]

We are trying to help clients move their data, Accounts Payable,
Accounts Receivable, Cash Book and General Ledger, from Accpac Plus in
Dos to a Microsoft Accounting system or alternatively to Office 2000,
MsAccess or Excel.

Can we receive any suggestions on how we should proceed in this
converstion.

Mehran,

Unless somebody comes up with a better solution here are a few options but
it will probably be a matter of running reports and extracting data and then
loading it into the new system with some data conversion as the data may need
to be changed. This is probably the easiest and most straight forword method
and also providing some audit trail.

You could try GridView. It's a viewer (and lots more) for ACCPAC Plus data.
There is info, and an evaluation download at

Another solution is to use an extraction program like Prompt (evaluation
