Yeah I guess a rules database. 

Are there any products that dig thru the legacy code I guess we just
heard about the Databorough products, are there others like that?

Can you provide an example of what kind of logic you are thinking of
loading to a DB?  I'm not sure how you'd do it if you are talking about
loading actual code statements like "If COND = 'A'    Eval R=B".

On the other hand, if you're just talking about a rules database then
that's not really any different than any other kind of db that is used
to control logic in a program. Is it?  Maybe I'm missing something there
in your question.

We have some programs that have hard-coding, in the logic phase of a
program. I am thinking it may be interesting to put these together into
a database thereby use this in the code instead. Usually these are
assorted 'exceptions to the rule' accounts.

 

Anyone who has done please share your experience, ideas on this.

 

Thank you,

 

Phil
