Using Translation During File Transfer Operations

Translation is specified in the copy statement of a IBM® Connect:Direct® Process. You can use the default translation table or create a new table.

Translation is specified in the copy statement of a IBM Connect:Direct Process. You can use the default translation table or create a new table.

To use the default translation table, type the following copy statement:

copy from file=abc 
     to   file=xyz 
          sysopts=":xlate.tbl=yes:"

To specify a customized table for data translation, include the following sysopts subparameter in the copy statement, where pathname/filename identifies the translation table:

copy from file=filename 
     to   file=filename 
          sysopts=":xlate.tbl=pathname/filename:"
