Have you reviewed the "UniData International" reference manual? Reference manuals are at http://ibm.com/software/data/u2/pubs/library
However, the manuals may not answer your question. For singly byte characters, the character set isn't really a database option. The character set is a terminal emulator (telnet client) option, and if you're lucky then everybody has been using the same character set, but you might be unlucky. I've seen databases where people from different countries were using different single byte character sets, but all updating the same database, with the result that no single character set could correctly list all the data in the database. I've also seen files that contained a mixture of ISO single byte character sets and Windows character sets and PC-DOS (different from Windows!) character sets. Multibyte character sets are another matter, and you should review the "UniData International" reference manual if you are using multibyte characters. > -----Original Message----- > From: Fawaz Ashraff > > Good Morning, > > Can any one of you tell me what character encoding > unidata uses by default?
