I'm looking at a few of a customer's JDE files.

When I look at the files using QuestView, from terminal session on their box, they look fine.

When I look at the files using STRSQL from that same terminal session on their box, they look fine.

When I look at one of our QuestView sample files (one that has zoned, packed, alpha, binary, and floating-point fields) on their box in Squirrel SQL, it looks fine.

But when I look at the JDE files in Squirrel SQL, most of the fields are showing what appears to be hexadecimal EBCDIC.

Anybody have any idea what could be going on here?
