After talking to SSA help line, they were sure such a conversion doesn't exist. But I looked again at the tapes that were labeled (from SSA)and there is a tape for S/36 conversion to BPCS 2.0.9. Then apply the ptf. Go through several more tapes, then finally a cd conversion to BPCS 6.1.00 GA Once I started reading the instructions, its looks like I have to actually install BPCS Ver 2.0.9. environment? I don't have the AS400 experience needed to feel comfortable, but there is help at our other plants that do. But they have enough to do. We are running our BPCS 4.4B version as a guest of the AS400. There is an option for full conversion or one for single file conversion. I would like to only convert the customer master file and maybe a few others. I have no idea how long this will take, or how this will turn out. I am not sure if I have to save files (from the S/36 environment) and restore the S/36 files to the AS400 first or if the conversion tape will take them from the S/36 environment to the AS400. I read something about a Q??? S/36 file library. It does exist on our system. I have won this position after a couple of managers have jumped ship. It's only me. Thanks to all who have responded.
