QCOBLIB is again available in PowerHouse Series 8. Take a look at the PDL
manual 3rd Edition (available for download as part of the PowerHouse book
set from powerhouse.cognos.com). You use QSHOW as before.

The function of GENERATE statement in QSHOW version 5 is as below :

> HELP GENERATE
GENERATE

To generate Cobol copy library definitions.

    GENERATE FILE ALL/namelist/PATTERN string/SOUNDEX (string[,n])

The GENERATE statement builds a file named QCOBTEXT that contains Cobol
definitions for all the specified files.

Only one of ALL, namelist, PATTERN, and SOUNDEX can be used with each
GENERATE statement.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------

 However GENERATE statement in QSHOW version 8 is  :  To generate source
statements definition from a compiled dictionary.


Is there a command  to generate Cobol definitions from Powerhouse version 8
dictionary as in Qshow v. 5?
