Re: different CCSID on a PF

Ok, I got the-powers-that-be to change the system value for QCCSID to 37.

I signed off, signed back on, checked my current job and my job ccsid
is set to 37.

I deleted my file and recompiled.   It's still set at CCSID 65535, and
I can't do a CPYTOIMPF *PCASCII to it.

I can do a CHGPF to make it 37, but why should I have to?

I'm lost.   help me please.

Scott,

the dif must be the use of a reference file in the dds, refrencing a
file with a 37 CCSID, causing the new file to adopt the 37.

the 65535 file is the problem child - I think someone messed around
with the system value for QCCSID.  that's the only explanation I can
come up with.
