Converting Data Files convert5, the file conversion utility, converts specified indexed, relative or sequential data files, from DG Interactive COBOL format to the format used by this system. This ensures that when you run your DG Interactive COBOL programs within this COBOL environment, you can still access existing data files which they have produced. In order to convert your data files, you must supply convert5 with the source program which produced them. The program that you specify must already be in a format that can be accepted by this COBOL system. You do not need to convert line sequential files since they are already in a format that is compatible with this system's requirements.
