Do  you  program  in  Turbo  C,  Microsoft  C,  Computer  Innovations C,
Microsoft  Pascal,  or  Turbo  Pascal?   If  you  do, this product is an
absolute MUST - Nothing like it exists.  Read on!
 
If your programming  language is C  or Pascal, and  you program business
applications or any other kind of applications where your data is stored
in random or direct  access files (files which  can be described by  the
Pascal Record/Case  statements or  the C  Struct/Union statements),  DFD
will let  you directly  manipulate/alter/convert/dump/zap/data-enter any
record, any field,  any array ...   ANYTHING in those  files by Variable
Name!  No more  need to write  one-time programs to  dump or change  the
value of any field(s) of any record(s) in your data files - and no  more
cumbersome DEBUG where  you have to  figure out offsets,  etc - no  more
printf() and writeln  statements to display  values!  The best  part is,
it's all done naturally - you  don't need to know about hex,  binary, or
how real (floating point) numbers  are stored - 3.1415926537 is  entered
and  displayed  just  like  that  -  DFD  does  all the internal storage
conversions for you!
 
What's more, DFD is capable  of converting not only the  data statements
(struct/union, record/case) from Pascal to  C and vice versa, but  it is
also capable of converting your  actual data files from one  language to
another  -  even  from  one  language's  storage format to another!  For
example,  Turbo  Pascal  uses  their  own  6-byte reals, while Microsoft
Pascal uses IEEE 4 and 8-byte reals.  Both Pascal's store strings  which
differ from  how C  stores its  strings -  No problem  for DFD - it will
convert these things flawlessly.
 
All scalar data types are supported.   Arrays can be up to 6  dimensions
each,  multiple  nested  records  and  structs,  even  comments  can  be
displayed and altered for every field.
 
This is  a MUST  SEE program  to believe  all of  the capabilities  that
exist.  So if you're a C or Pascal programmer, give this program a  try!
There's nothing like it anywhere  - it's a symbolic debugger  equivalent
for your database files!
 
NOTE - DFD was designed to run on color monitors. DFD may or may not run
       on some monochrome or other non-color monitors.
