File Format Convert cannot produce TOB2 or TOB3 files, and it
cannot read CSV files.
NOTES
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.
