If you need to change a codepoint in one of the system translate tables, 
it's really easy to do. A translate table is a very simple object, 
consisting of the translate-to values offset into the object by their 
position in the table. You can retrieve the "source" by executing DMPSYSOBJ 
on the existing table and then cutting and pasting the hex representation 
of the table into a source member. The hex representation is exactly what 
is required, for the table source when you remove a few extra spaces that 
the DMPSYSOBJ command processor throws in for readability. Here's the 
source for table Q037337850:
