Hi Bill, I see the problem, It looks like the exit oget 'tcpx_2' tcpx2 lines were concatinated to the end of the od command. Since I wasn't sure what was being done, I just copied and pasted. I will try again tommorow, and see what happpens.
Thanks for your help Gadi ________________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Bill Godfrey [yak36...@yahoo.com] Sent: 24 February 2014 16:34 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Convert Tcp/IP translate tables from binary to source I was able to reproduce your problem with the "e" characters. If this command (which is what I wrote): od -An -tx1 -j256 xlbin_2 | tr -s ' ' >tcpx_2 was entered with an "e" after the quotes, like this: od -An -tx1 -j256 xlbin_2 | tr -s ' ' e >tcpx_2 or with a string beginning with "e", like this: od -An -tx1 -j256 xlbin_2 | tr -s ' ' exit >tcpx_2 then consecutive spaces will be reduced to one space and the one space will be changed to an "e". A simple demonstration: echo " 01 02 03" | tr -s " " 01 02 03 echo " 01 02 03" | tr -s " " e e01e02e03 echo " 01 02 03" | tr -s " " exit e01e02e03 It looks like you may have run the command a little differently than the way I gave it to you. Maybe my message got mangled in transit to you. It looks intact on the IBM-MAIN web interface.

Is it on a separate line, or between the hex numbers on each line? Or are you referring to the file produced by CONVXLAT? I tested it with TCIP.STANDARD.TCPXLBIN, and it looks ok on my system. I also ran CONVXLAT with the resulting file and it produced an identical binary table.
