Import Data Definitions wizard

The Import Data Definitions wizard imports COBOL copybooks, PL/I include files, schemas, subschemas, and DBDs into a data design project from either the local file system or from a remote server.

You can tell the wizard to import files from the local file system or to connect to a z/OS® server so that you can browse data sets for members to download via FTP into the specified project.

Select File Type page

Use this page to import data definition files from either the workstation or remote server into a data design project.
