Just for my own understanding, isn't it problematic trying to view such 
characters on a terminal (or printer or emulator or...)? I wouldn't think it 
had so much to do with "AS/400" or "5250" as it has to do with the specific 
character set being used by the specific device. Move over to a device on the 
next desk and view the same data via STRCPYSCN and you can easily see different 
characters for the same hex values.

No?
