Thanks Roland.  I have applied some service to the unicode FMID and I will
try again when I get a chance to IPL.

Jim,

I remember their was a bug (e.g.APAR) because
CONVERSION 1140,1200; /* Latin-1 to UTF-16, *RECLM*               */
CONVERSION 1200,1140; /* UTF-16 to Latin-1, *RECLM*               */
wasn't the same like
CONVERSION 1140,1200,RECLM; /* Latin-1 to UTF-16, *RECLM*               */
CONVERSION 1200,1140,RECLM; /* UTF-16 to Latin-1, *RECLM*               */

We run z/OS R4 with current maintenance and have
CONVERSION 1252,1200,;   /* ASCII WINDOWS   --> UTF-16          */
CONVERSION 1200,1252,;   /* UTF-16          --> ASCII WINDOWS   */
for Enterprise Cobol 3.4 and
CONVERSION 1252,1200,ER; /* ASCII WINDOWS   --> UTF-16          */
CONVERSION 1200,1252,ER; /* UTF-16          --> ASCII WINDOWS   */
for DB2V8

D UNI,ALL shows (for these combination)

01252-01200(13488)-R        01252-01200(13488)-L
01200(13488)-01252-E        01200(13488)-01252-L

Just trust the CUNMIUTL utility and run your Cobol and DB2
applications. Seems some parts can be shared between Cobol and DB2 among
others like ISPF, NFS.

Hopefully in z/OS R8 these conversationt tables will be build undercover
on the fly.

OK,  I'm looking at the Enterprise COBOL V3R4 Customization
Guide chapter 4.4 which has an example of the unicode
requirements for both DB2 and COBOL which contains the
following statements -

CONVERSION 1140,1200; /* Latin-1 to UTF-16, *RECLM*               */
CONVERSION 1200,1140; /* UTF-16 to Latin-1, *RECLM*

CONVERSION 1140,1200,ER; /* Latin-1 to UTF-16, ER
CONVERSION 1200,1140,ER; /* UTF-16 to Latin-1, ER
