In order to convert from your existing files to KSAM files, you may want to take advantage of
utility programs provided with KSAM/ 3000. If your files are serially accessible, you can use the
KSAMUTIL command BUILD to create a KSAM file and then copy your files to the new file
with FCOPY. Another method only converts HP INDEX files. INDEX is the new name for RSAM
(or R'ISAM) files. This method uses the program RTOKSAM. Finally, if neither of these methods is
useful, you can write your own special purpose conversion program.
