If your MFD's are available to the WebFOCUS server the majority of FOCUS programs can be copied into an empty shell and run. Of course if you are looking for a tool to transfer a lot of FOCUS codes from mainframe to server, we did a manual ftp and renamed way back when. There might be something newer out there now.

Not sure if you only have reports or entire applications -- with CRTFORMs, menus, etc. -- but there's a series of articles being written on this topic in "TABLE FILE CAR". The Spring 2006 edition had an article about one approach. YOu can find it on the IB tech support site under Publications --> TABLE FILE CAR

Might be a good read.
