Modifying a generated type tree

The COBOL Copybook Importer automatically generates type trees from COBOL copybooks that describe the format of data. However, a copybook might contain certain statements or have insufficient information that result in type trees being generated that require some manual modification. Use the Type Designer to modify any type tree that is generated by the COBOL Copybook Importer so that the types contained in the tree accurately represent your data. The situations that might require type tree modifications are:

• The copybook contains REDEFINES clause(s).
• The copybook contains VALUES THROUGH or VALUES THRU clause(s).
• The copybook contains statements that are not supported by the wizard.
• The Byte-Storage Mode is used.
