Techniques For Loading Table Dump Files
There are several techniques for loading a table dump file. The techniques include using a 4GL program, using the Data Dictionary utility, and using the PROUTIL utility with the BULKLOAD qualifier.

NOTE: A 4GL program such as the preceding cannot process table dump files with code page trailers.If you load the table dump file using this program, which uses the IMPORT statement, you probably dumped the database using a companion 4GL program that uses the EXPORT statement.
