We have a cobol system on the AS400. We are connecting via sockets to PC's, Unix , etc in which data is held in ASCII format.
What is the best way of sending and converting the data from EBCDIC so that it is received in ASCII format?

thanks
Frank

sorry - I should also have mentioned that we are using a 'c' program called from cobol to perform the 'socket' stuff

Hi,
You can use this function :
QDCXLATE(xlate_length, buffer, "QEBCDIC ").
