ECMAP with COBOL Copybooks

[waroo]

I'm working with ECMAP v2.9. I'm trying to map to COBOL copybooks and I'm having difficulty in 2 areas:

1. Mapping to 'occurs' fields. My destination record is an occurs record and I'm not sure how to populate it with my input data.

2. Trying to map a 6 byte date field into a 4 byte packed decimal field. Theoretically, this should work but ECMap is saying that this is an invalid date move.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave

waroo,

Don't map directly to the packed field. Redefine it as character or 6-digit numeric (whichever works) and move it to that field.

Good luck,
