RE: Embed one IFS file in another

["Leland, David" <dleland@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I am opening both files using O_TEXTDATA in the oflag.  I am not getting
any error message - it's just that the data from the file using the
codepage of 37 is garbled.  I was able to get around it by using the CPY
command and copying the file with the 37 codepage to another file -
using 819 in the TOCODEPAGE parameter.  I can then use this new file and
everything's fine.  I was just hoping to be able to elimiate the extra
step.
