| Hi my friends, I found the QM convert tables in "[$MQ_intall_Path$]\conv\table", there are so many *.tbl files and the file name indicates its from-to convertions. For example, "05650567.tbl" means it's a CCSID convertioin from 1381 to 1383. But No file name contains "04B8"(1208 in HEX)! Does MQ support CCSID converting to/from 1208? If so, why there's no convert table in the intallation path? The 2nd question is: Assume that the source message contains some French charactors encoded by 819 in Remote Queue. I want to convert the message to 1208 when I get the message from Local Queue. Does MQ can do that? Thanks~ |

It is not quite as simple as looking for the hex equivalent of the CCSID, and finding the file. Some CCSIDs use a base table which can encode several CCSIDs; 1208 does this. Check ccsid.tbl for the CCSID entry in column 1 and its base table in column 2. If the base table is different, as it is for 1208 (13488 x34B0), look for the files with the base table CCSID instead. You will find many files with names including 34B0.
If the from/to file exists then WMQ can do the conversion.

| Hi Nigelg, Do you mean that: the 1208 can convert to/from 13488(34B0) by the base table ccsid.tbl, and 34B0 can convert to/from other CCSIDs by the other *.tbl file, so MQ support 1208 convertion to/from other CCSIDs? |

Split into it's own thread.

I believe Nigel did answer that question.
