Re: 5250 And Unicode

  Hello List,

  Here's a bit of a followup on this item .... I mentioned late yesterday
  that I was working in COBOL .... well, it turns out that COBOL has a built
  in capability of doing these conversions for you right in the database
  read.  Really simplifies my life to have this.

  On the PROCESS statement, you need the following options:

          NTLCCSID(13488) CVTPICNGRAPHIC

  Then, when you read the database with the GRAPHIC field that is defined as
  UCS_2, it will return the correct field values to you that you can then
  work with.

 In V7.1 there exists a 5250 web session. It is included in the *ADMIN

 5250 Emulation

 1) To display Unicode on 5250, you need iSeries Access for Web.
 Traditional 5250 emulators only support EBCDIC (not Unicode).
