xPort for AREV (Advanced Revelation)

Download a free trial or purchase xPort.

This package transfers data from your Advanced Revelation database quickly and completely. 

xPort provides you with the tools required to analyze and transfer data to common ASCII, TXT, CSV, DIF, DBF (dBase) and XML formats. Prototype DML and control files can be generated to facilitate loading to database platforms such as MS-Access, MS-Excel, MS-SQL Server, Oracle, IBM DB2 and others.

Revelation knowledge is helpful but not essential to use our software. Our expert services are available to help you migrate your complex applications when needed.

AREVGateway is an add-on package that enables real-time replication of AREV data to any SQL-compliant database. It is comprised of an AREV MFS trigger which creates XML documents based on specified field mapping and groups. These documents are then immediately processed by a Windows service to simultaneously update any number of databases. AREVGateway also provides SMTP e-mail output with attachments which is entirely controlled from AREV. Please contact us for details.
