Re: How to display Unicode in SQL

[Bruce Vining <bvining@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Is your job CCSID 65535?

On my system:

chgjob ccsid(37)
strsql
select * from ucsfile

shows my UCS2 (13488) data converted to my job CCSID.

The discussion on Unicode coincides with a little problem I'm having. I've
looked a little in the SQL Reference and other SQL manuals, but I've found
nothing on this.

I am working with an IBM output file for performance data. One of the
columns is Unicode (UCS-2, I assume) - CCSID 13488. The others are numeric
or character or some sort. A SELECT in STRSQL shows the Unicode column in
the usual EBCDIC fashion - accented characters with intervening blanks
(actually x'00' bytes but get converted to displayable blanks).

The file is QAPMJOBWTD - found from V5R2 onward, I believe.

Thanks
Vern
