Data Conversion

Data is exchanged in ASCII format. You must follow the conventions listed below when converting data between ASCII format and the format of the Consolidated Database (CDB):

Each temporary CDB table corresponds to exactly one ASCII file and vice versa.

Each conversion is defined by exactly one entry in control file SMO7ASCAD.

Exactly one structure file must exist for each file to be generated.

A structure definition in SMO7ASCSTR must exist for each conversion.

One line of an ASCII file corresponds to exactly one data record in a temporary CDB table.

In an ASCII file, fields are appended to each other without delimiters.

All records in an ASCII file are of exactly the same fixed length. However, you can also transfer ASCII data with delimiters.

A line of an ASCII file ends with the character string Chr(13) Chr(10).
