Hello,

Sorry my english
I have a problem with special characters when I use the function to translate lower to upper. The problem is I need translate character of spanish dictionary, and this dictionary has 'ñ' character..


So when I use the function:
SORT FIELDS=COPY            
OUTREC BUILD=(1,20,TRAN=LTOU)


This works for all letters, except 'ñ' to 'Ñ'....

How can I translate ñ too...anybody can guide me? If not posible, could anybody tell me about other function?


Sorry if my english is not ok..
Thank you.
Regards

Have a look at ALTSEQ to define the n-tilde to N-tilde and TRAN=ALTSEQ to make the change. You'll need an OVERLAY after your BUILD, so with WHEN=INIT for them, or possibly with OUTREC OVERLAY.

I found this:

INREC FINDREP=(INOUT=(C'ñ',C'Ñ'))


Thank Billy
