Thanks. Interestingly enough, I do sort of the same thing today; I take application files from zseries and use a Sterling utility to create COBOL copy books, and I use them to input to a little awk script I wrote that creates webMethods schemas. This way I'm sort of sure that my flat file webMethods integrations are going to match my application definitions. I say "sort of sure" because sometimes I find that the source code has marched on and created new fields (out of filler space, etc.) that are invisible to the application definition. They are usually internal fields for application system use and not part of the inbound or outbound record, but it is nice to have all the documentation aligned. :)

You lose all std and extended rules, I am not even sure the links are there because all that is completely different on the client server versions of gentran. The GIS mapper I have now says you can import a COBOL copy book to get your record layouts though I haven't personally tried it. I just read the instructions that said it was possible. They didn't have any of that back when I had to convert a bunch of Gentran basic 1.3 maps to Gentran Server: NT 2.1. So the answer is not REALLY. Sort of...it saves you some typing of file layouts but when that's done you still don't have a usable map.
