Hello,
I've never used Chinese, but we do use Brazilian Portuguese wich was also
difficult to set.
As both are currency signs, it seens right but still displaying default ($)
instead of specifics (Pound sign wich I don't have here).
On Windows look for additional keyboard and international settings. Also (or
first) try on a Windows Prompt (DOS), it's desired to work right.
Don't try to change or translate specific chars on CPs (specially those like
$) as that can cause issues on http, smtp, printing and other services. If
you can't avoid that, create a new table (or tables) and associate with its
specific devices (such as a printer).
Regards,
Rubens

Assunto: Chinese Data
Hi
We recently embarked on a project that would allow us to enter Chinese data
on to the iSeries.
We took the following steps.
Installed the Asia Language pack on Windows.
Set the non Unicode language to Chinese Taiwan.
Installed IBM Access with the Traditional Chinese Extended language pack.
Set the Host code page on the 5250 session?s to 937.
This works and we can enter Chinese data in this mode. The only problem is
that the £ displays as a $.
I thought that we could get round this by configuring two session?s one with
937 as the host code page and one as 285.
However when using the 285 session the £ symbol seems to combine with the
symbol next to it and display as the symbol of Pi. If you run the cursor
over the Pi symbol it changes to be £S.
Does anybody have any idea how I can get round this problem.
Thanks
Neill
