Re: Weirdness with * character

None of the above Mark.

Sequence was.

Write program, compile it, run it - * works
Write second version of program adding additional logic. * doesn't work.
Tried first program again * doesn't work.

Same RDi session, same 5250 session, same user - and it all happened within 30 minutes!

Was the failing program compiled by a different workstation using a
different CCSID? When constants are compiled, are they converted to the
run-time CCSID, or do they stay in the CCSID from the compile? I suspect
the latter.

That was my first thought David but the same 520 session produced
different results over a period of 30 minutes. No sign off/on - still the
same session.

Shouldn't be. This is a tiny partition that we only use for training.

It has had the same set up since first created.

One of the people who experienced the problem had a 5250 session

running and didn't sign off/on or change anything between runs and still
experieinced the problem.

Are all the workstations using the same code page?

I once had a problem where a '$' was being interpreted by the system
as a cents sign because the host was running with CCSID 37 but the
workstation was running in a non US-English code page.
