Re: Hex codes in position 5 are being mangled

I've experienced this as well and not only just using iSeries projects
even just using RSE/LPEX saves does this.  It's also a hit or miss type
thing in my case, it doesn't mangle all occurances just some of them... 


Thanks,
Tommy Holden

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Hex codes in position 5 are being mangled

Hi all,

I've searched the archives a bit but to no avail.  I seem to be having a

problem with a character x'22' in position 5, when pushing changes from
an 
iSeries Project.  The source file on the iSeries is CCSID 37.  If I do 
'hex edit line' in WDSc, it shows that the encoding in the source CCSID
37 
should be x'22', but when I push the member I end up with something 
entirely different:
For the first seven characters:

WDSc reports:  Unicode= 0020 0020 0020 0020 0082 0020 002a
                               CP1252  = 20 20 20 20 3f 20 2a
                               CP0037  = 40 40 40 40 22 40 5c

When I push the member to the iSeries I end up with:
40 40 40 40 62 3F 40 5c

Some how x'22' is becoming x'623F'.  I have used this member in other 
iSeries projects with no problems.  Anyone have any ideas why this might

happen, or where to start hunting for a solution?  I have to admit, my 
knowledge of how the translation from EBCDIC to ASCII/Unicode happens
when 
using WDSc is woefully inadequate.

Any ideas would be much appreciated, as I'd really rather not reapply my

changes to the production version of this source.
