On this subject, another point to note is as Bob rightly points out, that letters > 80x (& < FBx), are outside the standard ascii range, but may legally occur in UV (which nominally has encoding iso-8859-1). However, if you use these characters and also use the TOXML verb you will end up with invalid XML.
IBM in their wisdom have decided to add a UTF8 encoding tag (Unicode) in the XML header produced by the TOXML verb. UTF8 is NOT the same as Universes' encoding (iso-8859-1) so when extended ASCII characters occur in your XML - it generally won't parse successfully. Doh! >-----Original Message----- >Or do you mean that characters often shown with hex values between 80 and >9F do not have the same values in Unicode? The latter is true. ********************************************************************** This email message and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of addressed recipient(s).
