MFCATXPT, What it Does
This program provides presentation alternatives for reviewing or sharing the contents of the Micro Focus catalog. The MFCATXPT program will read a CATALOG.DAT file created by Micro Focus and produce a Comma Separated Values (or CSV) file with data file information. The information included in the CSV file may be easily imported into an Excel spreadsheet. This information includes the Data Set Name (DSN), Record Format (RECFM), Data Set Organization (DSORG), the minimum and maximum record length, the key position and key length and other information.

Company Overview
SimoTime Technologies was founded in 1987 and is a privately owned company. We specialize in the creation and deployment of business applications using new or existing technologies and services. We have a team of individuals that understand the broad range of technologies being used in today's environments. Our customers include small businesses using Internet technologies to corporations using very large mainframe systems.
Quite often, to reach larger markets or provide a higher level of service to existing customers it requires the newer Internet technologies to work in a complementary manner with existing corporate mainframe systems. We specialize in preparing applications and the associated data that are currently residing on a single platform to be distributed across a variety of platforms.
Preparing the application programs will require the transfer of source members that will be compiled and deployed on the target platform. The data will need to be transferred between the systems and may need to be converted and validated at various stages within the process. SimoTime has the technology, services and experience to assist in the application and data management tasks involved with doing business in a multi-system environment.
Whether you want to use the Internet to expand into new market segments or as a delivery vehicle for existing business functions simply give us a call or check the web site at http://www.simotime.com
