Kisco Information Systems announces today the immediate availability of iFileUtility, a native file utility package for the IBM i platform (Power Server i/i5/iSeries/ AS400). iFileUtility is an easy-to-use file utility for the IBM i that is very affordable.

 

iFileUtility, previously sold under the name Quick File Utility/400, provides an integrated set of file utilities for use by IBM i terminal users. iFileUtility provides a record browse for any native IBM i database file showing field names and values. Users can review records in single record mode or in multiple record browse mode. iFileUtility supports both physical files and logical files. From the file viewer, you can update individual records or you can optionally perform record group updates. The file viewer also provides access to record layouts and can show you all files related to the file in use.lee

 

iFileUtility is easy to use and very affordable. Kisco sells iFileUtility on a per partition basis but it is also available for IBM i consultants in a “carry around” format that is not locked to a specific computer system. The system is very intuitive for IBM i programmers and it can be configured for easy use by IBM i terminal operators.

 

iFileUtility includes the following features:

  • Single record mode or multiple record browse
  • File search on any field contents
  • Update individual records, even from a logical view
  • Scan & Replace on any field with selection criteria
  • Show field headings or field descriptions
