JDBC and CCSID problem

["Balazs Vojtek" <balazs.vojtek@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello there,

I have some problems regarding character conversion into the right CCSID 
when running JDBC insert statements. In my program I'm using 2 database 
connections 1 to our enterprise AS400 database and one to a small Firebird 
database. I'm trying to read the data from Firebird, then making some 
conversions and calculations, then to insert the result into DB2 database 
file. 
I have tested the program and configuration on my PC and it worked without 
problem, the special characters had been written correctly. As 
soon as I have tried to run the program on the iSeries, (some of)  the 
special characters weren't written correctly. I have tried to debug the 
program and found that the program interprets the  red data incorrectly. I 
was trying to use some conversion before writing the data but I was unable 
to specify the CCSID of the interpretation of input data .
Our machine runs on V5R1, and the CCSID of the database is 870.
The Firebird database runs on WinXP with windows-1250 encoding.

Thank you for your help

Best regards

Balazs
