Short descriptions and text for CA Ideal report, program, and panel identification fill-ins
CA Ideal does not let you enter DBCS data into:
CA Ideal data members that are executed
Command area (this implies no DBCS in CHANGE and FIND commands)
Any identifiers (names) for fields, programs, reports, panels, systems, users, and so on
Other panel fields where DBCS data is not reasonable or where system-defined edits preclude the use of DBCS data
If DBCS data is entered when editing a report, working data, program parameter data, procedures, or members, use the SET EDIT CASE MIXED command. If you specify UPPER, the DBCS characters are shifted. However, you can use SET PANEL LAYOUTCASE UPPER when editing a panel layout without shifting DBCS characters to upper case.
Use SET SITE ENVIRONMENT DATEFOR 'MONTH DD, YEAR' instead of the default LCMONTH DD, YEAR.
Do not use DBCS data in the edit pattern specified in a $EDIT function.
When using the $SUBSTR function with DBCS data, use caution to ensure that the resulting string contains S/D and S/S characters.
