Hi,
We are having the NT(QM) Application talking to AS 400(QM) in this scenarion the XML data send by the NT to AS 400 Queue Manager
th AS 400 always gets the Junk value I think its not able to convert the Ascii to Ebcedic value now we have written the XML in the AS 400 side for the Conversion it works fine
Is there any way to Do the Data Coversion in QueueManager Level with out programming
If So please let me know what are the Detailed Steps I need to Follow |

It is not a good idea to do Data Conversion at queue manager level. For string data, queue manager can do data conversion for you. For doing this, set MQMD.Format to MQFMT_STRING and in your application program use MQGMO_CONVERT while doing MQGET.

Shalini,
the steps to follow are:
1/ in the sending application, set mqmd.Format to MQFMT_STRING
2/ in the receiving application, specify MQGMO_CONVERT with the other options you might already have on your MQGET
MQ will evaluate the CodedCharSetId in the message descriptor of the message eligible for an MQGET against
a/ the queue managers CCSID, if mqmd.CodedCharSetId is not explicitly set to some other value before your MQGET is issued or
b/ mqmd.CodedCharSetId as set by your receiving application
and will perform the character set conversion for you, assuming it has a proper conversion table to perform the conversion.
This approach only works, if your message payload (buffer excluding MQ headers) contains character data only. But as you are saying that you are sending XML, this is the case.
So, specifying the correct format on the MQPUT and instructing MQ to convert for you on the MQGET by specifying MQGMO_CONVERT is the only thing you have to 'program'.
Hope that helps,
Stefan

I have tried the following steps Then also gives me Error
Given 1207 CCISD for NT QMGR & 897 CCISD for AS 400 QMGR

Can you please be a bit more specific, about which error you are seeing? It might be possible that conversion between 1207 and 897 is not supported, but the reason code and any AMQERR01.LOG entries would help to analyze.

Hi..
I'm communicating Solaris and AS400 by the following settings. Pl try this and let me know..
format = MQC.MQFMT_STRING;
characterSet = 1208; // UTF-8 Format
encoding = MQC.MQENC_NATIVE;
and also in which format u r writing the message whether writeString or ..
It is better to use write using bytes[].
