Parse-O-Matic Advanced Edition

Flexible, Programmable Data File Conversion

Data file conversion can be a daunting task - imagine spending your entire day re-keying a file into the proper format via a simple text editor, taking short breaks only for the bathroom and a microwaved Hot Pocket. Thrilling life, isn't it?

With Parse-O-Matic and a little bit of scripting on your part, you could get back a much larger part of your day and start to enjoy life again! Parse-O-Matic is a flexible, programmable data file converter that can take any ASCII flat file (or EBCDIC, if that's how you roll, or even raw binary data, database files, Excel spreadsheets, Word documents...) and help you to convert it to the format that you need, including HTML and XML. You can run Parse-O-Matic from it's intuitive point-and-click interface, the command line, or by using the task scheduler for unattended, remote application launching.

Parse-O-Matic comes with several sample scripts that you can study to learn how to fashion your own script that suits your needs. There's no MCP-level programming skill needed to craft a script - if you've written DOS batch scripts or spreadsheet macros, you'll find that writing parsing scripts is a breeze!
