Hello everyone,

I'm migrating data for one of our customers, and the program they were using before used RM-COBOL for DOS. What I'm trying to do is export the data into a flat or character-delimited text file so that I may import it into our program.

I have been having trouble finding anything on the RM-COBOL data file format online. After much Googleing, I've managed to locate one rather short document describing the file header structure and basic block structure, but that's it. If I had some sort of RM-COBOL interpreter available to me, this wouldn't be such a problem...

Does anyone here know of a good article or book on the subject?

Sorry, I don't have a RM-Cobol interpreter.
