Hi all,

One last try to understand what's going on here.

Users are copying and pasting from MSword to a DSPF on a greenscreen.
They are writing undisplayable characters to a PF in this way. Why does
the DSPF show nothing, but passes the undesirable characters to the RPG
program?

Hang on have I answered my own question? The DSPF doesn't show the
undisplayable characters because.... they're undisplayable?
