Cobol Coding Standards Tool in rexx

Hi,

I have developed a rexx tool for implementing coding standards for cobol programs for my client. Now I am converting it into a generic tool so as to cater the needs of any cobol programmer.

I need help from companies/firms to test and promote the tool.
If interested please get back

Thanks
Giby Alex

I am hoping someone my be able to help me with this. I am currently working for a company that uses several programming languages, including COBOL. I have been brought in to take over a position for someone that has been doing it for a while. I have learned all i need to, however, one of the programs that we use for the job is COBOL based. We have been unsuccessful in getting COBOL Micro Focus to load on my machine, and the program will not run with newer versions of COBOL. Currently, I am having to remote into another machine to get this program to run correctly. My boss as indicated that we are going to make changes for that program, and says it might either be rewritten in C++ or REXX. We currently already use REXX for a few other programs, but don't use C++ for any, just VB. Does anyone know of an easy way to convert from COBOL to either C++ or REXX

Right now i need a tool to check the COBOL and PL/I coding standards.
Hope the tool which you have developed will be of lot of use.
Can you share the code.

Hello kavya and welcome to the forums,

Please notice that the topic you replied is about 2.5 years old and has had only 1 reply (which is not really related to the initial post).

You might check and see if your system already has some product in place to do what you want. Normally, this is not something that one would write.
