<h1 class="topictitle1">Enter data, update tables, and make inquiries using data file utility</h1>
<div><p>The data file utility (DFU), which is part of the <span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> Applications
Development Tools package available from IBM<sup>®</sup>, is a program builder that helps you
create programs to enter data, update tables, and make inquiries.</p>
<div class="section"> <p>You do not need a programming language to use DFU. Your data
entry, maintenance, or inquiry program is created when you respond to a series
of displays. An advantage in using DFU is that its generic nature allows you
to create a database update program to load data to a table faster than you
could by using programming languages such as SQL. You can work with data on
a remote server using DFU with DDM files, or by using display station pass-through
to run DFU at the application server (AS).</p>
