Re: Systables - table LABEL not readable

+1

You can also cast the field as CHAR with a CCSID, but it's recommended to make the system value change Rob cites.

DSPFFD on SYSTABLES says that LABEL is a GRAPHIC type, which isn't just DBCS anymore - and the CCSID is 1200 - the spaces you see between letters are almost always hex zeroes.

CHGJOB CCSID(37)

Strongly recommend
WRKSYSVAL QCCSID and just change that to 37.
Many of us have, and midday on production machines.
Chuck Pence had a concern with that but you'll have to search archives for
