*                      some special characters in the          *

****************************************************************
The CICS IA load programs replace unprintable characters
with ".". Some special characters are not translated correctly.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • The translation tables in the CICS IA load programs have been
changed to translate all regular characters to be used with CICS
resource names correctly.
