**SETS Designer Kit**    The SETS Designer Kit provides users with cost-effective and efficient tools to design,    develop, analyze, and produce read-only data access systems on CD-ROMs or    diskettes. This software makes microdata, formerly accessible only via mainframe systems,    available at the PC level. Data systems created with this kit may be directly installed on    networks to facilitate access remotely or within large organizations. The SETS 2.0    Designer Kit contains all four components of the SETS 2.0 package: the SETS Designer Kit,    SETS Edit, **SETS Interface, and SETS QuickTab**.  The    SETS Designer Kit, and it's components, uses about 50 Mb of hard disk space.

**The designer kit can accommodate    data with:**Up to 15,554,560 records per setHierarchical or flat file structuresWeighted or unweighted records of up to    32,000 charactersUp to 32,000 fields per recordRecords within records: Up to 255 multifield    record areas, each repeating up to 255 times

**SETS Edit**    The SETS editor is a powerful ASCII editor that can be used with the Designer Kit. It    enables users to edit large data files on a Windows screen. Formatting of documentation    can be done easily, with the built-in word processing capabilities. Users can also    complete hexidecimal translations and searches in SETS Edit. Additionally, when editing    large files, a macro compiler and a keystroke collector make it easy to repeat operations.    Data editing allows you to check frequencies, sum, and sort columns.To obtain a copy of the SETS Designer Kit    contact **[email protected].**
