I receive data from MVS(S/390) system in EBCDIC format and need to convert the data to ASCII on the receiving side. I have set the MQ channels CONVERT=YES on, and it converts it just fine. However, I would like to leave the channel as is and do the conversion on the MQINput Node. I have set the advanced properties to CONVERT and left encoding and CCSID blank, and then tried with 273/1208 values. I still get the data as EBCDIC. Is my approach right? I want the data converted the same way the channel does it(same settings). ow can I emulate what the channel is using on the MQINPUT node? |

I think you need to specify a CCSID on that tab:
Quote: |
Convert Coded Char Set ID. Enter the number representing the character set identifier to which you want to convert character data in the message body.
If you do not specify a value, the value in the incoming message MQMD is used.
If you specify an invalid value, no conversion is done.

So you probably want it to be 437 or 1208 or 850 or something (based on your OS and language)..... _________________ -wayne |

Hi smeunier,
Can you check whether the MQMD.Format is set to MQSTR? I think for MQ_GMO_CONVERT to work, the MQMD.Format should be MQSTR. I am not sure whether this should be set for a conversion at the channel level. |
