RE: Problem Creating AFP Overlay

[jim_anderson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Located my problem with the Funny Char's in my overlay.   (However, IBM was
not much help, they just recommended two PTF's, one of which was for a
newer release than I just told them I hand on that AS/400).

The problem was in the Defination of the AFP Driver, on the
Options/Advanced Options/Fonts/Modify, the "Use Substitution Table" was
checked, as soon as I unchecked this box, my overlay was created correctly.
My theroy is that when I downloaded the latest C/A and patch and AFP
Driver, the default changed....

I appreciate all those that helped on this problem and I wanted to post the
resolution as soon as I discovered it.

Never seen this before, but it sounds suspiciously like a CCSID mis-match.
