Abstract
A personal computer executes a productivity application that communicates with a mainframe computer via a communications network. The productivity application configures the personal computer to retrieve datasets formatted according to a format associated with the mainframe and convert the data in the datasets to a second format native to the productivity application. While in the second format, a user may modify the data. If so, the productivity application configures the personal computer to convert the data back to the first format, update control fields in the data set, and send the modified dataset back to the mainframe.
