RecordEditor is a data-file editor that uses a record layout to format files into human-readable formats. It can modify CSV, fixed field width, and XML data files similar to File-Aid or Net-Cobols Cobol Editor.
The RecordEditor is a handy Data-File editor that is similar in function to File-Aid or Net-Cobols Cobol-Editor. One of its unique features is that it uses a Record-Layout to format the data in the file in a human-readable way, making it easy to work with. Moreover, it can recognize the format of fields and format binary fields as normal numbers rather than displaying hex equivalent as most hex editors often do.
Using RecordEditor, you can edit files in two modes. Firstly, in a Table (Spreadsheet like format) and secondly, in a single record format with fields going down the page. It is perfect for those who need flexibility in the way they edit their data files.
The software can edit various formats such as CSV (Comma, Tab, etc delimitered fields), both Text and Binary fixed field width data files for Windows, Unix, and Z-OS (IBM Mainframe) Operating systems. Furthermore, if you have existing Xml files, you can also edit them with ease using the RecordEditor.
Record-Layouts can be entered via the Layout-Editor or imported from Cobol Copybooks with minimal hassle. Lastly, the RecordEditor is written in java (6), so it should be able to run on most Computer Systems without any issues.
Overall, the RecordEditor is an excellent tool for anyone looking for a convenient and comprehensive data-file editor. Its ability to handle multiple formats, its versatile editing modes and, user-friendly features make it an attractive option for anyone needing to edit data files quickly and efficiently.
