Data File Editor is a standalone record editor in which to create and edit data files for use in your COBOL testing environment. The files you create can belong to a Fileshare server or reside locally on your machine. You can also edit existing data sets within your Enterprise Server regions if Enterprise Server is enabled.
The Data File Editor is a multi-tabbed environment in which you can have one or more data files open at the same time. Switching between tabs enables you to edit files simultaneously. Files may be open either in 'shared mode', allowing other users to also open the file with a shared file locking permission, or 'exclusive mode' where only you have permission to edit the file. You will only be able to open the file in exclusive mode if no other user has the file open.
This editor also provides a comprehensive filtering tool, enabling you to filter on only the records you require.
