What is the trick to importing AccuCobol FD's? I am getting the following msg:
Convert failed Error on line 3 parse error at token:6
I've tried several different options; Code Page = to default and UTF-16(the online help says to use UTF-8 but it is not available). There are no sequence numbers to strip, and I've tried all the various file formats.
I'm FTP'ing the FD using FTP explorer. Have modified a copy of the file to omit the modification comments.
I really don't want to type all my FD's in-
Thanks!

Looks like it came across something on line 3 that it couldn't handle. Could you post the first few lines of your definition file?

I had a similar problem with some files recently. I had to remove all comments from the code book, DataStage just couldn't recognise the * character as being a comment, and I had to create a 01 entry at the start of the book as it started at 07.
A missing 01 should give the error "File contains no table definition (01 level is not found)..."

When I was young ( ) and the IBM 360/20 was new ( ) the A margin was at column 8 and the B margin was at column 12.
That's it. No arguments.
