bhaddad6 Posted 2020年07月20日This tool has been very useful for us in opening, editing and analyzing large EBCDIC files. We considered a number of other tools and options but this tool was the best. Also, the performance when opening and saving files is impressive.1 user found this review helpful.

phasilyoland Posted 2018年02月05日Very useful tool, because many programs save info into files that are actually binary, but some fields are textual. In this case RecordEditor comes to the scene to preserve binary format that traditional text editors may damage.1 user found this review helpful.
