Question:

When I interactively run an FTP script from the Power system to do an MGET
from a Sterling Integrator FTP server, I notice that the file(s) received
get tagged with CCSID(500).

Given the above information, why is the system determining that CCSID(500)
is the correct CCSID to use? I would expect CCSID(37)...

Regards,
