Create a CSV of your Data Structure with field lengths

Download and unzip the seqstructure.zip file into the root level of the AccuZIP6 5.0 folder.

Open any database and run the following command to create a Comma Separated file of the Database Structure with the Start-Stop Character Positions for each field in the database:

=SeqStructure(DBF())

You can also add one or two more parameters to output a different file type (other than CSV) and certain field names. This outputs the result to Fixed Length.

=SeqStructure(DBF(),"TYPE SDF")

Change to TAB using: TYPE DELIMITED WITH TAB

=SeqStructure(DBF(),"TYPE DELIMITED WITH TAB")

The third parameter can control which field attributes get output:

  • These are all the possible output field attributes
  • You can remove which ever fields you want, and the preceding comma
=SeqStructure(DBF(),"TYPE SDF"," FIELDS field_name,field_type,field_len,start,end")

I was looking for an easy to use all-in-one postal software solution and was working with Satori Software. They quoted me $10,000.00 which was out of the realm of our budget. I was also lead to believe that they were the only solution, until I found Accuzip. I was able to save my company over $9,000.00 with one phone call to your courteous and knowledgeable sales staff. Your product does everything that we need and much much more. Thank you Accuzip!
