Re: v5r3 ftp and cpyfrmimpf and ccsid -- MIDRANGE-L

Bruce - (see question below)

from DSPFFD
Record Format Information
  Record format . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . :  NACMNOC
  Number of fields  . . . . . . . . . . . . . :      1
Field Level Information
             Data        Field  Buffer    Buffer        Field
  Field      Type       Length  Length  Position        Usage
  NACMNOC    CHAR         1655    1655         1        Both
    Coded Character Set Identifier  . . . . . :    500

If I change (rebuild) NACMNOC to ccsid 37, when ftp gets file
from unix system with (replace - will that create any problem or set
ccsid back to 500? (I'm in a fog when it comes to understanding what
happens during ftp in this area). I have no idea how file ever set to 500.
It was originally a CRTPF  with record length 1655 and the default ccsid
(which i think is 37). This maybe happened on restore from v4r5 to v5r3
system?
When we converted we did not recognize problem - their is special logic for
data between these separators.
