Abstract
The development of a tool for modularizing large common business-oriented language (COBOL) programs is described. The motivation for modularizing these programs is discussed, together with a manual modularization process. The business motivation for building a tool to automate the manual process is indicated. An enabling technology and its use in the development of the tool are discussed. Experience to date in alpha-testing the tool is reported
