Re: CCSID (I think) problem

Not translated, yes. But the codepage tells how a code point will be
handled at a display of print, right?  So QCHRID seems to explain why the
same codepoint is displayed differently on the 2 systems.

Aren't we saying the same thing?

BTW, our code pages don't agree <g> the 'cent' sign showed up as some kind
of accented 'o'!
