Caluda Data Manipulator
Home Up

 

The Caluda Data Manipulator takes a complex Corel Word Perfect labels document and parses it into a Microsoft Access Database.  CDM also parses this imported data into the standard name, address, city, state, and zip.  These records can then be easily updated and maintained by a simple Access Contacts Database interface.  The Export feature uses this Access database to create a Comma Separated Variable (CSV) file for use with special machinery that prints address information directly to envelopes.

The Connect button allows the user to select which database he or she wants to manipulate data in.  This database is used in import, parse, and export features of the application.

The Select File displays a File Open Dialog that allows a user to pick a Corel Word Perfect label file for importing.

The Import button is used to begin the import process.  Each record is displayed as it counts up.

The Parse button is used after a successful import to break the imported records into manageable fields of data.

The Export button prompts the user for a filename to create the CSV file containing data from the import.  This feature does not filter the data in any way at this time.  Future versions will allow the selection of specific contact records for use in manipulating mail outs.

The Go button performs the Import and Parse procedures without a needless pause in between.

The Help button should have gotten you here.

The About button simply tells you more about XOCOMP.

The Cancel button can be pressed during any of the Import, Parse, or Export processes.

The Close button exits the application.
