What do you mean by converting Cobol to Oracle ? One one side you have a programming language, and on the other side a subsystem to handle data without having to open files, read, blahblah. Would you dream of concerting VB to Excel ? I presume that what you wan to do is to replace your Cobol file accesses to ISAM files or the like to access to relational tables. The forget about the QUICK, because you will have to rethink everything if you want the effort to be worthwhile. FYI there used to be and should still be a product napmed PRO*Cobol allowing to embed SQL statements in Cobol code (SQL statements replaced by library calls by a preprocessor). This is the direction I would take. -- Regards, Stephane Faroult Oriole Software -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Stephane Faroult INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
