NovaXchange 3.1 for Windows 2003/XP/2000/NT/98SE

Powerful, Flexible Data Interchange Utility

NovaXchange includes powerful tape handling and data management software utilities for Windows 2003/XP/2000/NT/98SE platforms, with the ability to transfer and manage all types of data and all kinds of SCSI tape drives between operating systems and different architectures. NovaXchange reads and writes various formats including Fixed Length, IBM or ANSII variable length and even undefined tape record formats. NovaXchange also reads and writes IBM or ANSI Labeled or Unlabeled tapes, translates EBCDIC to ASCII and ASCII to EBCDIC. With NovaXchange, there are few, if any limits for users to manipulate and interchange their data.

NovaXchange 3.1 writes to smaller formats like 4mm and 8mm easily. It translates fields between ASCII, binary, packed decimal and zoned decimal (EBCDIC) formats. It can select data from tape, disk or optical disk, field by field, while converting data. NovaXchange 3.1 can even customize a database output file for customer requested information in a "real-time mode" and output to a variety of media including disk, optical disk or tape.

What's New in NovaXchange 3.1 New/Updated Plug-Ins TAR / CPIO Plug-In Library Support Plug-In Network Support Plug-In Support of Large Block Size This version has the capability to read and write blocks larger than 64k. This requires that the program has access to wnaspi32.dll. NovaXchange defaults to using a maximum of 64k blocks. To use the larger blocks and be able to see them with the Tape Inspector viewer, you must set the read length to a value as large or larger than the maximum block size to be handled. The large blocks (up to 512k) have been tested with TAR and unlabeled data tapes. There is no specific restriction on using large blocks with labeled tape, except that the standard label format allows for a maximum block size of 99,999 bytes. This is only available with an ASPI update on Windows 98se and NT. Windows Me, 2000, XP, and 2003 doesn't support ASPI32. Queue Multiple Scripts To Run In Sequence This handy new feature allows you to queue all your scripts in advance to run in sequential order, reducing the amount of user required actions.
