I know of two companies who might be able to help you. BWIR and ADC.  I have 
done some good size projects with BWIR around some multi-billion ISVs who 
wanted to move from 2E.  WWW.BWIR.COM. If you want a contact, let me know.

I think Lansa was offering an option like that a few years ago.  They have a 
page of testimonials of people that did the switch but I don't know how 
automated they've made the process.

what's the case against CA other than lack of any real change to the base
RPG4 generator?

Anyone got any experience of transitioning away from Synon? 

I have a customer who is "uncomfortable" with CA's ownership of the product and 
would like to explore options to move off. 

The generated code is just too darn ugly to consider maintaining at that level, 
so what are the options? 

Some years ago I thought there was a product that could import the Synon model, 
but I can't see any trace of it now. 

Any thoughts anyone?
