Re: CCSID equivilent on a PC?

["Carsten Flensburg" <flensburg@xxxxxxxxxx>]

437 is PC ASCII - there's a list of all IBM supported codepages here:
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/globalization/codepage
s.html

-and supported mappings (V5R1) here:
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/globalization/ccsid/V5
R1M0mappings.html

On the iSeries mapping between codepage 37 and 437 is supported - but
correct conversion also depends on what codepage is actually - due to
possible configuration parameters - expected by the function doing the
conversion, which in this case could also be f.x. codepage 819 or 850.

Best regards,
Carsten Flensburg
