UNICHAR function

Syntax

UNICHAR (unicode)

Description

Use the UNICHAR function to generate a single character from a Unicode value.

unicode is a decimal number from 0 through 65535 that is the value of the character you want to generate. If unicode is invalid, an empty string is returned. If unicode evaluates to the null value, null is returned.

The UNICHAR function operates the same way whether NLS mode is enabled or not.

Note: Use BASIC @Variables to generate InfoSphere® DataStage® system delimiters. Do not use the UNICHAR function.
