Can anyone recommend software which will generate flowcharts and
document the SQL from Cobol code modules?

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Why stop with flowcharts? Why not go back to punched cards? You can do it
with no
additional hardware at this web site:

Just enter your program a line at a time, right click, Copy Image, go to
Wordpad, Ctrl-V
(paste). You'll have a deck of program cards in no time.

Getting the compiler to read them will be our next project. Volunteers?


Tee Hee...:-)

Been there, done that. In my case it was getting a compiler that could ONLY
read punched cards, patched to read mag tape... Happy days...

This was considered a "major advance" at the time.
