Hitesh,

You need to convert the NT based fmb's to fmt's through converter provided in D2K.The .fmt file will be a text file converted from binary.And this file will be platform independent.

Hi,
It is not needed to convert your files back to .fmt. .fmb itself platform independent. But I want to know whether you are going to use character mode forms or mottif gui version forms of unix. If you are going to use character mode,it will be very hard to rewrite the codes which were written for mouse navigation to KEY triggers. For Mottif version you need to do alignment & resizing of all the items.
