Parse-O-Matic Power Tool

- Version 4.01.00

Is your file in the wrong format? Don't rekey or delete
it - fix it! You can reformat your valuable data with
the Parse-O-Matic Power Tool - a programmable file
converter. Sample applications: Edit a text file
automatically. Copy good data; repair or remove bad
data. Restructure a print file. Migrate from a legacy
system. Export a comma-separated file for import to a
database (e.g. Access, SQL Server, FileMaker, Oracle,
ODBC) or spreadsheet tables (Excel, Calc, Quattro).
Select and parse first and last name, street address,
city, phone number from a mailing list. Change
characters to uppercase, lowercase or mixed case.
Calculate totals up to 18 digits long. Thinking about
data warehousing? You can split or reorganize files per
your specification (regular expressions supported), or
mine printed reports for essential information. Working
with large files? You can convert, filter and transform
files of any size. Input formats: read, extract,
analyze and reorganize data fields from flat files such
as: text (ASCII from Windows, Unix/Linux or Mac, EBCDIC
from a mainframe, plus log files from web servers,
process control devices and scientific instruments);
binary ("hex"); fixed length and variable length
records; tab/null/comma-delimited (CSV); Windows
clipboard. Output in almost any record or file format,
including HTML and XML. Includes sample scripts and
printable help. Runs from the standard interface (with
built-in file browser), or via a batch file, the
command line, a shortcut, or from a task scheduler for
unattended operation. Free for basic conversion
functions (more than 30 commands); $149 for advanced
features.
