It is the responsibility of the Data User to request the proper download diskette format.
Proper format is dictated by the designated micro software.
This exhibit provides information on two micro software packages that users may wish to use to manipulate downloaded data. The first data field in each record is placed in column A, the second in column B, etc. Numbers may have a decimal point and a leading minus sign. Numeric data that is not computational in nature, such as account numbers, should be treated as character data, i.e., placed within double quotes. No special file extension is needed.
