Data Transfer Capabilities of CD-ROM Software, Part II.
Jasco, Peter
CD-ROM Professional, v4 n2 p61-66 Mar 1991
Describes and compares several exchange/transfer formats used to upload records into software host programs, including unstructured or plain ASCII; fixed field; delimited ASCII; tagged; MARC (Machine Readable Cataloging); and graphic. It is concluded that CD-ROM producers should strengthen the built-in output management of programs and offer download options in more than one exchange format. (SD)
