When you view a tabular input file (for example, a DTIF file),
    the file format first undergoes an automatic domain conversion
    from a table format to the DDIF format. The output is then
    displayed on your screen.

    To help ensure minimal format and content changes when the
    tabular file is processed for display, you can create an options
    file containing processing options that apply to any CDA-
    supported tabular file format. Data tables and spreadsheets are
    examples of tabular file formats.

    In the options file, type the DTIF_TO_DDIF format name, followed
    by the processing options described here. Specify the DTIF_TO_
    DDIF processing options in addition to the processing options for
    a particular tabular input file format.
