To:
• TOA5
• TOACI1
• TOB1
• CSIXML
• CSV
File Format Convert cannot produce TOB2 or TOB3 files, and it
cannot read CSV files.
Some file headers have less information than other formats. If you
convert from a file with more information in the header to one with
less, information will be lost. If you convert from a format with
less information, some fields will be left blank.
Some formats (e.g. TOB1) store string in fixed length fields and
have headers that specify how big that field is. Other formats use
variable length strings. If you convert from a format that uses
variable lengths to a fixed length, the length is assigned to 64. If
the string is longer than this, it is truncated.
Converting a File
Press the Open button to browse to a file to be converted. After a file is
selected, press the Options button and set up the options for the conversion.
Then press the Convert/Check button to convert the file.
If a conversion is in progress and you wish to stop it, press the Abort button.
Log File
If the Write Log File checkbox is checked, a “Log.Txt” file will be created in
the same directory as the source data file. The log.txt file will be overwritten if
it exists.
10.4.2 Options
Check
Record Numbers – Checks for missing record numbers.
Timestamps – Checks for missing timestamps based on entered interval.
Both can be checked in the same pass. If a file is written, other options are
available.
Files can be baled if missing records are found. See the Bale based on
information below. When checking timestamps, “null” records can be written
to “fill” missing records. See Missing Records information below.
