After creating a CSV file using CPYTOIMPF and CCSID 278 or *PCASCII.

It looks like accented characters (Danish characters like A with circle on
top) do show up in 5250 emulation when I use EDTF on IFS file but they
don't show up when I copy the file to PC and open it in text editor with
UTF-8 encoding. I tried copying the file to PC in binary format and ASCII
but no luck.

Is it a bug or I cannot convert Accented characters using CPYTOIMPF for
PC? Other CCSID 278 characters are converting fine.

Any idea/help ?
