>From the book: <quote> CCSID coded character set identifier of the terminal. Set by ISPF based on the code page and character set of the terminal. If the terminal code page and character set cannot be queried or if they are not supported by ISPF, this variable will be blank. </quote> Perhaps your TN3270E emulator does not support querying of the CCSID. Another possibility is that you are not using a "queriable" VTAM logmode. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
