  • Subject: French character translation in FTP
  • From: "Stone, Brad V (TC OASIS)" <bvstone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Alright, I knew this would happen, and it did today.

We have an OE system on the PC that folks enter orders on.  Then, we take
this data, put it into and EDI format and FTP the file to the AS/400 where
the order is processed and billed.

Well, some of our Canadian Companies (most likely in Quebec) are using
special characters when entering these orders in.  When they get to the
AS/400, needless to say they turn into garbage (X'3A' for the most part).

Anyone have any ideas on how this can be solved?  Can the AS/400 show
characters such as an "e" with an accent, and if so is there a way to
specify a table when a file is FTP'd to the AS/400?

Thanks.
