Select the Code Pages

Country Extended Code pages provide additional characters beyond the standard ASCII and EBCDIC character sets. These additional characters are specific to individual countries and languages.

Follow these steps:

  1. Select Code Pages from the Edit menu.

    The CA Datacom Country Extended Code Page Selection window displays where you can specify different code pages for the host computer and PC.

  2. Click the Host Code Page pull-down menu and select the code page you want CA Datacom Server to use for the EBCDIC character set.
  3. Click the PC Code Page pull-down menu and select the code page you want CA Datacom Server to use for the ASCII character set.
  4. Click OK.

    The Translation Table Editor combines the selected PC and host code pages to create the ASCII to EBCDIC and EBCDIC to ASCII translation tables.

  5. Select either the EBCDIC to ASCII or the ASCII to EBCDIC option from the Edit menu and review or edit the resulting character mapping.
  6. Click File Exit which prompts you to either save the translation table file or cancel the edit.
