Hi,

If u check 'Unicode checks active' then

u have to maintain 'ENCODING'. After encoding 'UTF-8' or 'DEFAULT' or 'NON-UNIQUE' , as mandatory.

If u uncheck 'Unicode checks active' then encoding is not required.

Thanks & Regards,

Sunil.

Hi,

You can specify

open dataset DSN in text mode for output encoding utf-8.
