Tape Conversion

Sometimes data transferred from one system to another will be unusable. We have extensive experience with a range of data from old and obsolete systems and have developed a bespoke suite of tools to process this data. Our tape conversion services ensure data transferred to new systems will still be usable.

What we do

IBM Mainframe/AS400

• We process your COPY or SAVE format data and convert it into delimited ASCII with printable numeric fields. The results can then be loaded into most PC/UNIX applications.
• We have the capacity to process several gigabytes of data in hours. Often your converted data can be returned to you overnight.
• We can convert from MVS Backup, AS/400 SaveObj and SaveLib and from MVS or OS/400 COPY format media.

VMS data

• Our bespoke applications convert data from a VMS Backup set and restructure record based files compatible with most Windows or UNIX applications.
• Data files containing records that are Fixed or Variable in length can be converted to be carriage return and line feed delimited.
• Our proprietary rapid transfer process means complex and slow network or communications connections are avoided and converted data is returned quickly.
