In order to convert the Impromptu catalog (Cog-7) into FM
model (CRN 1.1) these are the steps.

This is done using cer2 directory in your computer where
cognos is installed maybe in \\programfiles/cognos/cer2

U have to get to the directory where cer2 is installed

for eg..
c:\cd cer2
c:\cer2 > cd bin
At this prompt type following code... suppose if your
catalog file name is "Gotest.cat" (It shud be present in
cer2 dir)

c:\cer2bin>impcat2xml c:\cer2Gotest.cat c:\cer2gotest.xml

Go to FM model and then give the name for new project
select import source as Cognos Impromptu and select the
Gotest.xml

Then publish the pacakge to reportnet start creating reports
