CRLF in EBCDIC is x'1512', IIRC, and x'0D0A' in ASCII. Concatenate one of those strings into the relevant field.

HI is x'22', RI is x'21', and normal is x'20' - put the one you want in the position before the text to be highlighted, and put the normal byte at the first byte following. In either case, you replace the byte in question, so it should be a blank.

Just curious, if you can say, what is the need? Formatted display in QShell? CRLF will do nothing in a normal display file, AFAIK, except be non-displayable.

I just cannot remember how these 2 tasks are handled:

1. specify a carriage-return line feed (in hex) at the end of a database record
2. apply (HI) or (RI) attributes to same record...at different intervals.

Thanks for the time people.
