RE: AS/400 file returns Garbage in VARPG

Hmm.. you are right.  The CCSID for the fields are 65535.  The CCSID for the
CUSTOMER file which works is 500.

I changed the CCSID to 37 for the file and it works fine now.  Of course I
did some checking in test environment first to make sure changing the CCSID
wouldn't break anything in the JBA system :)

Thanks for the help,

Jim Langston

Check the field-level CCSID values on the character fields, using DSPFFD.
You don't want them to be 65535.  (37 is common for English)
(This relates back to the job CCSID when creating the file)
