Can I use CrossData/400 with my System/36 files?

Yes. CrossData/400 can process a System/36 file (or any internally described file) using the CrossData/400 Format API if there is a single format of data in the file. Normally CrossData/400 reads the DDS layout directly from an externally described file. However, it provides you with a way to define the format of the file if it is internally described. You can use this Format feature to describe the types and lengths of fields in the file. CrossData/400 will then use this information to convert the file.
