Hi,

After reading the dataset, you can change the code page using TRANSLATE:

TRANSLATE c .FROM CODE PAGE g1. TO CODE PAGE g2.

TRANSLATE f .FROM NUMBER FORMAT n1. TO NUMBER FORMAT n2.

Hope this helps,

Hi

You can define it while opening and not reading file.

So see the options for OPEN DATASET

hi,

you can use code page along with open dataset.

open dataset. ... LEGACY BINARY MODE [{BIG|LITTLE} ENDIAN ] [CODE PAGE cp] 

open dataset. ... LEGACY TEXT MODE [{BIG|LITTLE} ENDIAN] [CODE PAGE cp]

regards
