Databases - DataPumps

Datapumps convert a database from one type to another, or from one version to another. In general, this never works very well. These are some of the differences As a result, datapumps only do part of the job

The datapump that comes with Interbase 5 has a great user interface, but it can not produce a final report or save the configuration.

The Interbase Datapump is more difficult to use, but it produces sql files that you can review, edit, and archive.
