Subject: Re: Converting
That's a reasonable suggestion. Many pitfalls to watch out for (like the
branch gates example I gave earlier), but like you said, possibly 75% coverage
for the code portion. System macro conversion could be a big headache too, but
at least feasible to try.
Trickier could be conversion of the

Answers in the order of your questions:
In most cases, yes, but the COBOL implementation chosen was MUCH worse than the
original, far less readable or maintainable, and in many cases unnecessarily
more complicated.
The converted assembler code was decades old, all pre-2000, so ESA at best, and
Hi,A suggestion... I did similar thing some years ago using z390 Macro
Language. In summary you can create macros and replace used macros by Cobol
statements.The macros just punch Cobol statements to an output.I converted
about 250 critical Cobol code.Main question... Is it 100%, of course
The modify command with quotes gives it as typed on the console ( including
the quotes)
Without quotes it is upper cased

AND, wait for the first time there's an Asure outage, or a breech (remember
"the cloud" does not take responsibility for this). You basically do it at
your own risk.
Which data-center manager is Fedex going to blame then?
Good luck to them. Seem it numerous times!

Year 15 of the 3 year plan to move off the mainframe.
Seems like I've heard that before.
Oh yes, it will save us "x" amount of dollars.
Of course we're going to spend 45 times the projected savings to get there, but
that comes out of a different budget item so it's okay.

As does MODIFY, which I think of as very analogous to START, since the data
ends up in more or less the same place.
In implementation, MODIFY is nothing like START (because of what parsing is
done by the system of the command itself).
Each individual modify "owner" parses
