Subject: [CPF0000] CCSID Conversion


Folks,
Is there an easy way on the Iseries (V5R2) to convert English characters
to Japanese either through PF, LF, or PRTF using the CCSID keyword?
Or is there a conversion API with an associate translation table I could
use?
I read something that if your system is has the CCSID set to
65535 a conversion is not possible.  Is this true?


My goal is to print an item label in Japanese or English
depending on which user and printer is being used.


Any help or direction you can provide would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank You in advance.

Richard -

No offense intended, but this is the wrong forum for this sort of question.
CPF0000 is for general discussion, not AS/400 - iSeries - i5 technical topics.

I'm taking the liberty of reposting it to Midrange-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx ,
where you'll get better response.

And, by the way:
I think you'll need more than a CCSID to use Japanese characters.
IIRC, you'll need double-byte files as well.  I'm sure that there are
some experts that will weigh in on this issue.
