Re: Another QtmmSendMail problem?

[Bruce Vining <bvining@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This would not be causing the problem you're currently working on but I
would recommend using DFTCCSID rather than CCSID on your RTVJOBA.

CCSID can legitimately be 65535 which would disable conversions to 500
while DFTCCSID will always be a valid non-65535 CCSID value.  Basically if
CCSID is not 65535 then DFTCCSID is set to CCSID.  If CCSID is 65535 then
DFTCCSID is calculated based on the LANGID of the job and a conversion to
500 can be attempted.

The source CCSID was retrieved using RTVJOBA and CCSID.

It's odd.. a while back before IBM said to convert to CCSID
500 most non US code pages had problems.  Then after this
came along it seemed to work.  But now here is a situation
that is causing a problem.

I did change the conversion for them to use iConv instead
of the API, but with the time difference won't know if it
worked until tommorow.

Thanks...  any more ideas, I'm all ears.
