Take a look at Arcad - they are a French company with a wonderful
product that builds a repository of your system as a part of their
change management product. It gives you a cross walk of all programs,
queries (both QM and STRQRY) and tables - you can drill down from a
program and see all files used or drill down from a file and see all
programs, queries, any objects associated. On top of that you get a
great version control change management system. We have the green
screen version but they also have a GUI version if one is willing to
spend the money. I have had the product for about four years and could
not imagine life without it. It has simplified our analysis work
greatly.

I don't work for them - just love the product.

Folks,
We're undergoing the task of creating documentation for our iseries
programs. The number/size/complexity/god-awful spaghetti code of these
programs makes this impossible to do manually. So, we are looking for
software to help us along. My research so far has pointed me towards
Documint and Hawkeye. I've contacted both companies to set up a trial.
I'd appreciate it if anyone would provide feedback regarding their
experiences with these two packages. As an alternative please recommend
any other packages. I'm also happy to hear from vendors.
We are mostly an RPGLE shop though most code is written in RPG III
style. We have a handful of COBOL programs, and very small amount of C.
Thanks
