Issue/Introduction

How to check if DBCS option is valid in a Easytrieve program?

Environment

Release : 6.4

Component : CA Easytrieve Plus Report Generator

Resolution

To check if the DBCS option is valid or not, specify field type peculiar to Kanji such as "K" or "M" in a Easytieve program and compile it.

Example;

fieald-name    W       6          K  

If the DBCS option isn't valid for the Easytrieve program, the B098 compilation error message appears for the applicable field statement as follows.

fieald-name    W       6          K  

*******B098 NOT A VALID TYPE - K

If the DBCS option is valid for the Easytrieve program, the B098 error doesn't appear for the M or K type fields.
