Chapter 9 Running Convert3 The first step in converting your RM/COBOL data files is to use the Convert3 utility to produce a file conversion program. You must input to Convert3 the RM/COBOL source program that created the data files you are converting. When you have created a file conversion program, you can use it to read RM/COBOL data files and convert them to the format used by this system. You can use Convert3 in either of two modes: interactive or batch mode. If you run Convert3 in interactive mode, prompts are output to your screen for you to enter the various parameters that control the production of the file conversion program. If you run Convert3 in batch mode, you must supply the necessary control parameters in a file.
