A7: Not really, but there are several partial ones. The main tools available are for converting data from other formats to .ace format. The Agricultural Genome Information System has a growing stock of useful tools at http://probe.nalusda.gov:8000/acedocs/conversion.html. Some additional ones were contributed at the ACE97 Workshop and can be found in the Proceedings, http://probe.nalusda.gov:8000/ace97/tools/. Mike Cherry maintains an archive of tools at ftp://genome-ftp.stanford.edu/pub/acedb_dev/utilities/ For a general tool for converting data to ACEDB format input files, Joachim Baumann (joachim.baumann@informatik.uni-stuttgart.de) has written the Perl program TextConvert, available at ftp.informatic.uni.stuttgart.de/pub/DART/.
