RE: QtmhRdStin & QtmhCvtDb

[sublime78ska@xxxxxxxxx]

This is existing code and there is no budget to change it.  I found out the
culprit: the EXEC directive was changed from specifying %%EBCDIC%% to specifying
nothing.  By adding %%EBCDIC%% back in, the data was handled correctly by
QtmhCvtDb.   

Thanks,

Phil
