No one is trying to put you down. We're trying to help. Your question is way too general for an email forum type answer. We just do not know the sort of answer to give.

I recently received a request to produce a UNICODE table to allow zOS to accept Non-ASCII input. Currently, the system recives ASCII input. Apparently there is a scenario in IBM developer works to product this UNICODE table. My question then, if I do this, will z/OS accept both ASCII and Non-ascii input? Has anyone gone through this exercise? Thank you in advance, Bill J.
