Our Economics faculty are trying to install a data set developed by the
International Monetary Fund on world economic conditions.
The original data file was developed on IBM mainframes in a compressed format
with COBOL programs to decompress the file and organize the info. We are
having some difficulties adapting it to VAX/VMS and need to talk with
folks at another site who have it running successfully. The IMF claims
that others have installed it, but can't give us names of VMS sites with
it, nor can they help us with the installation problems.
Please contact me directly if you have this data set up on your VAX and
are willing to help us with some advice. Please contact me, instead of
INFO-VAX, since this is really a specialized topic that will undoubtedly
bore most of the system hackers.
Thanks...
