RE: View of files using INAV

I changed it to 37. So, on any existing DB file, I will never be able to view using normally? using this method?

Hi John

That is almost certainly a result of your QCCSID value being 65535 -
there might be a setting in iNav to show the values, there is one for
file shares, but I forget for database.

See if you can have that system value changed. It is almost guaranteed
not to hurt anything, it takes effect immediately for new jobs, so it's
highly recommended.

Yep - the same place you went to to get the script processor. Open a
schema (library), open the list of tables, double-click on it and you'll
get a tabular list of the contents - you can even edit it there.

There's also a right-click on the table - maybe that's what you did.

You might still get the hexadecimal stuff if your QCCSID is 66535 - I
forget now.

So these are the 2 myriad ways to be found in iNAv

John

There are myriad ways to "do a quick view" that will have different
results - which one are you using?

DSPPFM?
RUNQRY?
SQL script runner in Navigator?
Double-click on table in Database component of Navigator?
Excel download?
?????

Why when I do a quick view on a file, do the numeric fields show as hex? One of the files I am speaking of was created using query 400, nothing fancy
