I assume you want to take Cobol data definitions and make a XSchema representation of them. There are a few issues: - Cobol Data can be binary (COMPUTATIONAL items), XML is all UNICODE, so you would have to encode binary data or change the value to a string. - Items can be PACKED, this internal representation was used to save space and really has no meaning in this context. - Items can be REDEFINED, i.e. the same memory can be referenced in two different manners. - How do you represent conditionals (88 level items) Unless your data definitions are all DISPLAY and have no redefines, I would probably not travel too far down this road.
