RE: Converting CCSIDs

["Bob Cozzi" <cozzi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Christen,
Do you mean the default CCSID for the job/system? 
Do you mean the current CCSID of the IFS file?
I agree with Scott, *ALL is somewhat confusing.

I don't understand what you mean by *ALL?!  Everything has to be one CCSID 
or another, right?  How can it have all CCSIDs?  Doesn't make any sense.
