Reading or Writing Cadcorp BDS or FDB files

I have been asked by a colleague whether FME is able to read or write to Cadcorp's BDS (Base Dataset) or FDB (Feature Database) file formats.  Initially I thought this would probably be possible as FME can read/write to a large number of formats but upon checking further it doesn't look like this is possible.  There doesn't even appear to be any mention of these formats within the Knowledge Base or Community Answers sections of the websites.

 

 

Can anybody shed any light on whether FME can read/write to Cadcorp?

 

 

Many thanks

Yes, FME can read and write to BDS but you must have a Cadcorp MapModeller license on the machine running FME.
