The discussion on Unicode coincides with a little problem I'm having. I've looked a little in the SQL Reference and other SQL manuals, but I've found nothing on this.

I am working with an IBM output file for performance data. One of the columns is Unicode (UCS-2, I assume) - CCSID 13488. The others are numeric or character or some sort. A SELECT in STRSQL shows the Unicode column in the usual EBCDIC fashion - accented characters with intervening blanks (actually x'00' bytes but get converted to displayable blanks).

The file is QAPMJOBWTD - found from V5R2 onward, I believe.

Thanks
Vern
