Dirty Harry's Character Assassin

A power user tool that strips or replaces any ASCII character in your ACT! database with any other at a blazing speed.

• Remove or replace null characters
• Change or strip low- and hi-order characters
• Convert European accented characters to English equivalents

• Convert EBCDIC and vice versa

Cleans up unsavory characters

Dirty Harry is a software tool that fixes or removes troublesome characters in your mailing list data - characters lurking in your file that may confuse your printer or hang your computer and halt processing halfway through a run.

Some things you can do with it:

Remove or replace null characters. Change or strip low- and hi-order characters. Convert European accented characters to English equivalents. Convert to all upper- or all lower-case. Convert ASCII to EBCDIC and vice versa. Eliminate or exchange unusual delimiters.

Faster than a Speeding Bullet

Dirty Harry can process a 10,000,000 byte file in just over a minute -- almost as fast as the DOS COPY command. Even on the most intensive tasks (like EBCDIC to ASCII where every character is changed), it cruises at 500 meg/hour on a 486/66.

An Ounce of Prevention...

Let Dirty Harry analyze your files before you start working on them. At lightning speed, it will give you a listing of each ASCII character found and the number of times it occurs. You can see immediately what you've got and what you need to change -- before the problems begin.

...and a Pound of Cure

Once you've identified the bad guys, send in Dirty Harry to clean them up. For example, Dirty Harry's a perfect "garbage man" for files that are translated from EBCDIC to ASCII. It cleans up the leftover characters that can hang your computer.

How Harry Does the Dirty Work

Dirty Harry's Character Assassin looks at every byte in a file, then strips or changes the characters you specify using tables that you select, create, or customize. Dirty Harry works on any Dbase, ASCII or word processor file. It is compatible with any DOS computer or any operating system that can make a DOS window.

It's amazingly simple to use. You can run it interactively, from a batch file, or from the DOS command line. And with a 12-page user-friendly manual, getting started takes about five minutes.

Dirty Harry comes with an easy-to-read manual, free technical support, a full 60-day satisfaction guarantee, and most important -- clean data files that will process smoothly and profitably every time.
