If this was supposed to be an answer to the can you run VS COBOL II programs, this is just plain WRONG. You absolutely should NOT use a STEPLIB. Use ONLY the LE run-time modules built in to LE. (Sorry if this was in answer to something else, but too much was snipped) Brian Westerman [EMAIL

yes, someone can. The Enterprise COBOL Migration Guide will tell you which programs need re-linking (if any); what restrictions exist, etc. see: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IGY3MG31/CCONTENT S Rahul Balachandran, ISDC Chennai [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message

Anyone have an estimate of the time required to migrate from z/OS 1.4 to 1.7? Relatively small z/890 system with three LPARs. Any comments on the amount of time is helpful. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive

I would say that you should be able to install and convert a test LPAR in a week or two if you don't have any of the JES2 exit conversion issues or something like that. We have a log of fairly closely integrated software for our size shop, so it takes us longer. Probably 2-3 weeks of work, but
