I interpreted his request to mean that he wanted to replace all his RPG code with SQL running on DB2. Of course, that doesn't make any sense, which is why I didn't comment before.

Subject: Re: Road Map to move a home grown application from RPG to DB2 SQL or to any other data base platform
Nice outline - and the difficulties are clearly stated.
I do wonder about what the OP meant by "DB2 SQL" - is it to move to a non-IBM i version of DB2, or it it to use SQL embedded in RPG instead of native IO? I don't have the original post in front of me, so I don't know.
IIRC, Fresche Legacy might have some tools to help with either option, I think - I'm not sure about getting off IBM i completely, although maybe their tools can. I do believe there are some refactoring tools that were acquired from Stuart Milligan's suite of products, including X-Analysis.
I'm not promoting any of this, just giving information.
