Conversion dataset error

Former Member

Custom program dumps while reading the dataset.This is because of the french character which has been replaced by # in ECC 6.This upgrade is from 4.6C to ECC 6 and we are in UCCHECK phase.

I fixed it by adding 'encoding default ignoring conversion errors replacement character space ' to open dataset .

But expecting if there is any better solution or any note to implement to solve the issue.

Thanks in advance.

Thankyou for the reply but my question here is this solution would read the data from my old verion 4.6c WITH NO ERRORS since it was non-unicode.But what if this program has to read some data in current system which is unicode.

Will read dataset encoidng non-unicode read my ECC ´6 data successfully..
