Westpoint Data Exchange
includes powerful tape handling and data management
software utilities for the Windows workstation, with the
ability to transfer and manage all types of data and all
kinds of SCSI tape drives between operating systems and
different architectures. Data Exchange reads and writes
various formats including Fixed Length, IBM and ANSII,
variable length and even undefined tape record formats.
Westpoint Data Exchange also reads and writes IBM or
ANSI Labelled or Unlabelled tapes, translates EBCDIC to
ASCII and ASCII to EBCDIC. With Data Exchange, there are
few, if any limits for users to manipulate and
interchange their data.
Today's storage technology had insured that more and
more data can be written to an incredible number of
different devices. This becomes of special importance
when companies move to the client / server paradigm.
When there is a need for converting mainframe tapes, to
the smaller and more manageable formats available today
(such as 4mm, 8mm etc) and the data must run on the
latest PC operating systems, Data Exchange is the one
product, which will accomplish the task with ease. Not
only will it read all IBM mainframe tapes, but it will
automatically convert and write these tapes to Windows
95 ,98 or NT 3.51 or 4.0 and 2000 /2003 file formats.
Data Exchange can also translate fields from such
formats as ASCII, binary, packed decimal and zoned
decimal (EBCDIC)
Another exciting feature of Westpoint Data Exchange is
its unique ability to select data from tape, disk, or
optical disk on a field basis while performing a data
conversion. Thus Data Exchange can customise any
database output file for customer requested information
in a 'real-time mode' and output to a variety of mediums
including disk, optical or tape.
