MANY, MANY, MANY years ago, I wrote a college paper on the theoretical
possibility of turning COBOL into RPG II.  However I couldn't handle look
ahead and fetch overflow as I remember.  It would not have been a trivial
effort, and I never wrote it.

>> This may be wishful thinking, but is there any kind of conversion
utility
that will convert COBOL to RPG?

There is no tool that I am aware of - but why do you want to?  Why not
simply upgrade the COBOL?  There is not a lot to be gained in converting to
RPG unless you are implying that nobody in the shop speaks COBOL.
