    Hello IDMS Community,

    We are pleased to announce that the IDMS Copybook Support for VSCode COBOL Language Support Extension (PTF LU07911) is now Generally Available (GA)!

    Feature Overview
    The COBOL precompiler can now create a tar file containing a copybook generated from each COPY IDMS statement in a program (i.e. record, file, map and module). This file is a standard tar file and can be transported and extracted into user-specified locations including a local folder in the VSCode workspace.

    Key Benefit
    This feature facilitates and simplifies the use of IDMS copybooks with the VSCode COBOL Language Support extension.

    To learn more, please visit our New Features section and the Implement IDMS Copybook Support Through the COBOL Language Support Extension page in TechDocs.

    We also encourage you to visit the IDMS product information page and review the product documentation.
