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.
