What release are you on? COBOL was supposed to add XML generation in the V5R4 release but I haven't checked if it happened.

I use CGIDEV2 (www.easy400.net) - IBM's free web tools - to generate XML from RPG. No reason to think that the COBOL interfaces to CGIDEV2 wouldn't work as well but I have not tried them personally.

If you decide to write your own in the end, take the extra time to develop a template (i.e. mailmerge) type system similar to the way that CGIDEV2 works. You'll thank yourself for it later.

Hello everyone,
We have a project where we need to create an XML document and send it somewhere. Where can I learn to do this? We want to use COBOL on our system i. Is this a good idea?
