Hi community,

I have a question, I am attempting to translate a stream
(Environment.CustXML .. see code below) that contains a valid ampersand symbol (&) but when doing so the symbol does not get translated properly rather and in stead the "&" show's in its place .. can some one help and explain how to correct this?

Here is the bit of code ....

Code:

SET msgBlob = ASBITSTREAM(Environment.CustXML
      OPTIONS FolderBitStream
      ENCODING 546
      CCSID 437);

I'm a relative newbie to Message Broker so be gentle.

Thanks for your help

Vitor

Why are you trying to "correct" this? Any XML parser worth the name will handle that. A well-formed XML document should contain '&amp' rather than '&'.

In short, what is the problem this translation is causing you? This will lead to better advice.

And as you are using Environment.CustXML, make sure that part of the environment tree has been assigned a proper parser (this is not automatic).

Have fun
