You can browse the contents of a data file without a corresponding DDL file.

To browse a data file without a DDL file

  1. Select File > Open without Dictionary. The Open window opens.
  2. Select the data file and click Open. The View Data Without DDL window opens and displays the selected data file.
    Note:
    • Make sure to adjust the record length in the Record Length field to display the data file correctly.
    • The default encoding is NOTRANS, the default encoding for the host computer. You can change the encoding by selecting Options > Preferences.

    The position numbers for the file will appear at the top of the window. The position numbers are read vertically.

    Example:

    In this example, 000 is position 0, 010 is position 10, 020 is position 20 and so on.

  3. Optional: You can change the view by selecting the browse option in the Browse menu. The following views are available:
    • Browse Data on Record Level: The data are displayed by record number. This is the default.
    • Browse Data in Hex: The hex information is displayed for each record.

    You can also display the data by Record Numbers or Byte Offsets. Click either option from the Options menu.

    Note: Offsets are 0-based.
  4. Optional: To view a specific record, enter the record number in the Go to Record field and click Go.
  5. Optional: If changes are made to the file in other editing tools, while it is still actively open in the Data Browser, select File > Reload to update the views.
