Subject: cent sign ¢ create on AS/400 and download to PC

How can I create a cent sign on an AS/400 and download a file with the cent sign to a PC?

The cent sign is data in the some fields, not part of the file name.

I have an old 5250 type terminal with a cent sign key.  I can create a PF record containing the cent sign on the AS/400 using that key.

When I display the record using DSPPFM, I see the cent sign properly, it is hex 4A.

When I CPYTOPCD and send the file to a shared folder, the cent sign changes to a ">".

I need to use a cent sign on retail store shelf tags.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
