- Use intrinsic functions to convert between code pages including EBCDIC, ASCII, and Unicode
- Describe the basic rules for XML document structure
- Invoke the IBM high speed XML parser from a COBOL program to extract data from an XML document into a COBOL record structure
- Use the XML GENERATE statement to create XML data from a COBOL data structure
- Use Enterprise COBOL 4.1 or later facilities to work with namespaces and attributes, and to parse XML documents a record or a segment at a time
