FAQ 810: DC2000--Convert files to ASC

Problem:

Do you have instructions on how to convert our DC2000 files to ASC?


Solution:

Find the \ASC\ASC.INI file on the server or standalone workstation. Edit the file using a text editor like Notepad. Add the following statements to the file if they are not already there.

[Importer]
SmartConvert=Y

Save the file. Next create the .TXT files from DC 2000. After that, create a new case in ASC using the A9 pattern plan. Go to Utilities-Import-Smart Conversion, click on the magnifying glass and browse to the location of the Planspec.txt file. The System will next ask you to Select Import Period. This can be any one of the three periods that track the accounts. The system will locate all the files and import the data to ASC.
