Re: Changing Coded Character Set (CCSID)

[Ivan Hurtado <iva030@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have an update. After continued messing around with
this, I found that I can't change the CCSID for
character table columns, but I can however change it
for Graphics table columns to 13488. I assume that I
can then use these graphics col types to store my
unicode character data. Anyone have any tips/advice? I
will try it out to see.

Thanks,
Ivan
