If you have good knowledge of the app or if it is not a large system,
you may be better off to rewrite.  But, if it's strange to you, or you
don't have a real good understanding of RPGII, there are some pretty
good conversion utilities out there.

I used one of the utilities, I don't remember the name, several years
ago...I have notes on that job somewhere around here.
Anyway, it did a pretty good job of conversion, but it is not a trivial
project, requiring a step-by-step, well thought out project plan.  IE,
you can't just go in there and do it on the fly.

If you want, you can let me know and I'll try to find the name of the
conversion tool.  It did a fair job of converting the OCL, creating
externally defined files (with a good bit of prep work on your part),
and converting the code (with some clean-up).  The real problem with
conversion is, you still have (converted) RPGII code.
