| Field Descriptions |
| COBOL Embedded Characters |
Empty space in character data items can be filled with
BLANK or NULL values. If BLANK is specified, single byte spaces are
embedded for PICTURE X type items and double byte spaces for PICTURE N type
items.
The default setting is BLANK. |
|
| Access Mode |
|
Set up the method to access the data file. |
| COBOL IO |
Specify this to access a COBOL file. (COBOL must be installed.) |
| BINARY |
Specify this to access a sequential and
fixed length file other than a COBOL file. (COBOL does not need to be installed.) |
|
|
| COBOL File Size |
| The size of the data file is specified. Either
"Standard" or "Large" is specified. This setting is used only for sequential and line sequential files. |
| Standard |
A data file up to 1GB can be manipulated. |
| Large |
A data file exceeding 1GB can be
manipulated. |

|
| Default Edit Mode |
| When a previously edited file is loaded, you can specify the
default edit mode for the Select Data File dialog
box. The options are Update,
View and Add.
The default setting is Update. |
|
When the Select All Data box is checked and you select a field to edit, any characters
that you enter will overwrite all data in the field. If the Select All Data box
is unchecked, characters will be inserted into the data instead of overwriting it. |
