An OpenEdge definitions (.df) file cannot be loaded as it is into a SQL Server instance.

If the objective is to migrate an OpenEdge schema to a SQL Server instance, you might want to use the MS SQL Server DataServer utility to do this.

Hi John,

You can refer dataserver for Microsoft sql server document for more details.

You can create a DSN and then migrate OE schema to MS sql server.

You need to connect to the openedge db and choose data administration from tools.

Data Administration --> DataServer --> MS Sql Server utilities --> schema migration tools --> Openedge DB to MS sql server.
