Build a Translation Table

The CA Datacom Translation Table Editor lets you create and modify tables that control the translation of character data between the EBCDIC character set used on the host and the ASCII character set used on a PC. You can select Country Extended Code Pages for the host and PC. You can also edit the ASCII to EBCDIC and EBCDIC to ASCII translation tables to specify character conversions not provided by the standard code pages.

Follow these steps:

1. Double-click the Translation Table Editor icon in the CA Datacom Server group.

   The Translation Table Editor screen appears.

2. Select New from the File menu.
3. Edit the translation table.
4. Select Save As... from the File menu.
5. Assign a name and save the file. Translation table files have the extension .TAB.

   The new translation table is saved.
