HiRDB Dataextractor enables the user to extract data from a mainframe or HiRDB database in batch mode and store it sequentially in a HiRDB database. HiRDB Dataextractor has the following features:

• Data in a central database can be incorporated by batch-mode processing into a departmental database at a specified point in time. This capability enables tables to be created specifically for the departmental database or to refresh all data.
• A portion of the data can be extracted from the central database to create a departmental database suitable for each application.
