The Japanese version of OS/400 has a special feature called ideographic conversion, which is used to assist with input from a keyboard. If ideographic conversion is enabled, then when keying input into an ideographic field, the user may press a command key to obtain a special input-capable field at the foot of the panel. The user may then type into this field Katakana phonetic characters to spell out a word. The system will convert the word into a list of possible DBCS characters. Typically, there will be only a few candidates, one of which can be selected.
Make this facility available on your displays by using the IGCCNV DDS file level keyword. The command key used to produce the input-capable field should be F18 on iSeries.
