If you have the RPG ToolKit (www.rpgiv.com/toolkit) you can use the TOEBCDIC() procedure to do that. If not, the way TOEBCDIC() works is by simply calling QDCXLATE API and passing it the proper translation table out of QUSRSYS and I think there's been threads on this so check the archives. -----Original Message----- From: rpg400-l-bounces@midrange.com [mailto:rpg400-l-bounces@midrange.com] On Behalf Of Joe Giusto Sent: Tuesday, January 07, 2003 7:55 PM To: RPG400-L@midrange.com Subject: ASCII to EBCDIC Is there any way in an RPG program to translate a record from a flat file from ASCII to EBCDIC format? I have a situation where I am reading a flat file that for some unknown reason contains both ASCII lines and EBCDIC lines. I can tell which are the ASCII lines because the all have the same hex value in the last byte. I thought of using something like the XLATE function but got stuck on how to pull in the translation table. Can anyone offer me some suggestions?
