All well and good - but it seems, from another post from Matt, that the column is set to 65535, so one should still set the JDBC connection to convert 65535, it seems.

IBM help desk told us that IBM recommends changing the system value for CCSID to 37 and discourages 65535.
BUT with the caveat of caution and research to avoid undesired consequences.

Any idea why when I select from that file it is all hexadecimal

I can view it fine with strsql from a 5250 session, but still run

Almost there! Just need to figure out how to get it to display
properly in a "real" query tool like run sql scripts in navigator,
sqldbx, or ibm data studio

Wow, that is ugly.
The reason is that the WRKJRNA command apparently creates each column
with CCSID(65535) - which is 'binary data, do not translate'. That
seems a defect to me, since on my system the default CCSID is 37 - US
English. I'll have to take that up with IBM.

For the moment, if you are using the IBM i Navigator, go to Connection
Temporary JDBC Settings, click the Translate tab and select Translate
CCSID 65535. That should help some, although the columns out on the
end
still look goofy to me.
