Bruce,
Thanks.. that's exactly what I'm doing. But it appears
that possibly the issue is with a character literal in the
application. In this case it is a double quote.
I am guess that in these cases I need to convert these
characer literals from the CCSID of the program object
(DSPPGM shows 65535, but I don't see any parm for this on
the CRTBNDRPG command) to the default CCSID of the job.
Next, if this is correct, would I convert the character
only, or the entire string that contains the character in
question.
Example, the character is "
The string could be "Joe Smith" (including the quotes).
The program does something like this:
eval text='"' + %trimr(name) + '"'
I found the following note in the invariant character set
list:
EBCDIC code page 1026 where the quotation mark (") is not
at the same code point as it is in the invariant character
set.
So in this case it may sound like I have to look for a
special situation (1026 CCSID) and do the conversion then
and only then? But what would be my base CCSID?
Thanks!
