Hi,

Try to use:

OPEN DATASET E_FILE FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE

without ENCODING DEFAULT.

Hi Ambi,

UNICODE related changes in your programs are essential to make it work in 6.20 and the same statements may not work in 4.6 B.

Specially UNICODE related changes, might well have to be handled using slightly different programs.

Also you should not de-activate the unicode check in the program attribute. Specially as you work with Japanese Language also ..

Further, even if you will find a OPEN DATASET code that works for 4.6b and 4.7 ..it's not something general ..

I mean ,not all the UNICODE related stmts will be compatible to all the versions.

Cheers,

Ram

Dear Ram,

Thanks for your reply.

I dont understand your reply completely. however i understood that no other way except doing different coding at program in this case to solve this issue. am i correct.

so always for 46b i have to use below statment

OPEN DATASET FPATH FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE.

and for 620(NO unicode system),i have to use different below statement to work right.

OPEN DATASET FPATH FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE.

correct?

Almost..

But are you sure that you don't need UNICODE enabled stmts? If not sure, then check other variances of the OPEN DATASET ..default encoding might be good...

and for 620(NO unicode system),i have to use different below statement to work right.

OPEN DATASET FPATH FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE.

Cheers,

Ram
