Working with American Society for Automation in Pharmacy (ASAP) file format is a nightmare. The segment and field delimiters can vary, several versions are currently in use, and the official standard documentation is not readily available. Converting and using the data in a CSV format greatly simplifies all processes downstream.
This tool will convert an ASAP file to CSV format and will allow you to experience the ease of using CSV data. The tool is free and generates the CSV file on the fly with no data stored at the server.
