Appreciate your help/advise on this.

Wrapped Stage would be one option to do this, depending on the specific requirement you have.

Is this needed on a per-row basis or just once? If just once, I'd prefer an Execute Command activity in a job sequence invoking the command line interface for running the COBOL program.
