Either

CHGSYSVAL QCCSID for the system
or
CHGATR on the flat file on the IFS with *CCSID chosen.

List,

In Run SQL Scripts of iNav, when I execute a SELECT against a "flat-file",

the data is returned in hex instead of character format.

Some time ago there was a mention in a thread of a command that could be

issued that would solve this problem for any subsequent queries against

files of that nature. I remember trying it and it worked great, but for

the life of me I can't remember what the command was. I've tried CL:CHGJOB

CCSID(37); but that doesn't do it.
