- fill in the FORMAT parameter on the SENDING client
- change the code page of the receiving client or sending client
Exactly (OR dont ask for conversion on the get - i think this will work)
When the data is not in the ccsid requested (in this case the client ccsid) and you request for conversion, we attempt to convert the message from 850 to 437. We can do the headers just fine, but what about the data? We dont know if the message is binary, text or whatever so we cannot touch it unless we know the format. If you tell us it is a string, we can convert it as character based data. As it happens, 437 and 850 share a lot in common so to the user the data 'looks' like it doesnt need converting, but there are some code points which are not the same and need mapping[/quote]
