Re: CCSID error

[Mike Amos <yl_mra@xxxxxxxxx>]

Bob,

The default sys value of 65535 has both positive and negative aspects, 
although I personally prefer setting it to the CCSID most closely 
matching the character set for the country in which the system runs. 
However, changing it may alter the way information is translated from 
current files and, therefore, create an entire set of new problems in 
your situation. Be very careful.

The first thing I would try is to ftp the file in binary mode since you 
should not need/want translation of the jpg file. See if the file 
transfered via ftp opens correctly on the target system and let us know.
