Absolutely, Brian. And I am a total advocate of designing applications to be free of dependencies on physical aspects. I just wanted to point out that there is a guarantee of sequential delivery, which in many 'simple' MQ configurations (no clusters etc.) is all that you need. Anyway, I think

Hi, We have an application running on OS/390 and placing messages in AIX. We do not employ any conversion in this case. This set up works just fine. But when we ran our application program on a different S390 and AIX, the messages that arrive in the AIX were of EBCDIC format. Why would this
