Translating mainframe computer data to spreadsheet format

TG Burnakis


The translation of mainframe-stored information in ASCII into spreadsheet format for use in Lotus 1-2-3 is explained. Details are presented on how to use the Data Parse command to create a translation template that tells Lotus 1-2-3 how to interpret a file written in ASCII. Lotus 1-2-3 can also translate some files in formats other than ASCII. It can translate files in the Data Interchange Format directly into its own format. Translating mainframe computer data into spreadsheet format is relatively simple and obviates the rekeying of those data.
