<h1 class="topictitle1">Change the CCSID of a message description</h1>
<div><p>When you take the option to change a message description from the
Work with Message Descriptions display, all current values for the selected
message description are retrieved and placed on the prompt display.</p>
<p>The first- and second-level text are converted from the CCSID of the message
file to the CCSID of the job before they are put on the prompt display.</p>
<p>*JOB is displayed for the CCSID keyword and has two different
meanings depending on what you do on the prompt display. If you change any
part of the first- or second-level text, *JOB means that the text is converted
from the CCSID of the job to the CCSID of the message file when you press
the Enter key. If the text is unchanged, *JOB works like *SAME, and none of
the following texts are changed:</p>
<ul><li>The first-level message text</li>
<li>The second-level message text</li>
<li>The CCSID of the message description</li>
</ul>
<p>Both the first- and second-level text of a message description must be
in the same CCSID. If you change the CCSID of one level, the system automatically
converts the other level to match.</p>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example: Change a message description</h4><p>The
CCSID of message file MYMSGF is 65534. The CCSID of the job that is running
WRKMSGD is 00277. The CCSID of the message description is 00037.</p>
<p>Select
option 2 to change a message description. The text of the message description
is converted from CCSID 00037 to 00277 before being placed on the prompt display.</p>
<p>If
only the first-level text is changed, the 00277-tagged text is stored in the
message file. The CCSID of the message description is changed to 00277. The
00277-tagged second-level text is also stored in the message file to keep
both the first- and second-level text in the same CCSID.</p>
