RE: How to display a field with invalid data?

Create a table of hex character below x'40' and a corresponding table of
characters equal to or above x'40.  Then use the xlate opt code.
d bad      c           const(x'0102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f...')
d good     c           const('                        ...')

c    Bad:Good   Xlate  FileFld   ScreenFld

I use '?' for my replacement character.

Hi!

I have a file, and one of its fields (character type) may contain characters

which are below x'40'. When I move this field into a display's file field, 
then do EXFMT, I receive an error message:
Permanent I/O error occurred in file

How can I avoid this?

Thanks,
Andras
