What exactly do you need if you say tools in MF? You can use all the solutions given (JCLs) in the utilities forum as tools. |

Well, one of my friend created some tool in REXX to check the proper alignment and other such formating. I am also looking for such kinda tools. |

Based on the number of times people ask for it, a tool to convert text data into an Excel .xls formatted file would probably make some good money. |

Do you want us to do the assignment for you? _________________ Utility and Program control cards are NOT, repeat NOT, JCL. |

And what is the problem converting text data into Excel? It's easy, I've done it in the past, and not just text, but also formulae operating on the data... |
