Mixing single-byte and double-byte character fields

GDDM V3R2 Base Application Programming Guide
SC33-0867-01



You can mix single- and double-byte characters in HPA fields in the same way as with procedural alphanumerics. You must place the special shift-out control character (X'0E') at the beginning of a DBCS substring and the shift in control character (X'0F') at the end.

The display method, either mixed-with-position or mixed-without-position, can be specified in the bundle definition for the mixed field. For more information, see "Performing output of strings mixing single- and double-byte characters" in topic 13.7.
