Easy.
If this is a once off.
Create a program with RM/COBOL that reads the RMCOBOL file, and saves
the records into a sequential file (line or record).
Bear in mind that you may need to convert some numeric formats like
COMP-6 to valid MF formats. Preferrably convert all numerics to
numeric edited with leading/trailing sign.
If you are keeping the application in RM/COBOL working, then look at
the use of RELATIVITY to access the files. This will enable your MF
programs to access the RM files directly using ODBC.

A program (released under GPL) claims to be able to read these files.
It might (or might not) work for you.

| Thank, i'have already tried this utility.
It works good, but it does not convert all data correctly when there
are 3 numbers consecutives that are equal (eg. 111 is converted 11).

If you are trying to read a RM/Cobol index file into a
flat file (without the index keys), you might use the utility
that is provided with the runtime.
command line=
(runtime folder)\RUNCOBOL (runtimefolder)\RECOVER2 A="(indexfile)"
This should create a non-indexed file with only the data.
Good Luck,
Bob.
