Error description

  • PCOMM installed without the Remote API Client, can use the 1146
    Code page for their EHLLAPI applications, without issue. If
    PCOMM is installed and the Remote API is installed, that
    support is not installed. Users can set the Host code page to
    1146, but the PC code page has no 1146 (or
    other Euro currency character code pages) available.
