Record marked as obsolete and not updated for a long time.
Omnis 5 was a rapid application development system associated with TigerLogic and available for multiple platforms. It is now known as Omnis Studio, which is available on Microsoft Windows and other platforms.
An od5 file is an obsolete Omnis 5 database file. It belongs to the database and application files created for the Omnis 5 environment rather than to a general-purpose database format.
The format is no longer commonly used. Existing files may require a compatible version of Omnis 5 or Omnis Studio to access their data.
On Microsoft Windows, try opening the file with Omnis Studio. Compatibility with this obsolete format depends on the version. If Omnis Studio cannot open it, an installation of the original Omnis 5 environment may be required.
Open the database in a compatible Omnis environment and export its data using that software, if the version provides a suitable export function.
If the file cannot be opened, conversion normally requires access to an older Omnis installation or to an application that can read the original database.
