Didn't Shmuel tell us that UTF-8 contains all of Unicode? (And all EBCDIC code points are defined in IBM-1047.) I gotta try this on 1.13 and submit a PMR. Or am I missing something? The Roman characters in the file as transferred with sbdataconn=(IBM-1047,ISO8859-1) appear plausible. Perhaps I should resubscribe to IBMTCP-L. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
