Introduction

Data Converter is a tool for converting data files from one format to another. You define the input and output file formats, and Data Converter moves the data between various file formats, for example between a COBOL data file and a CSV (Comma Separated Values) format file. Data Converter can also convert between different character code systems, such as between ASCII and EBCDIC, or ASCII and Unicode.
