|

|
DBCS data</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p>Consider this information when describing a printer file that contains
|
||
|
DBCS data.</p>
|
||
|
<ul><li>If you describe fields in the file as DBCS fields, the system considers
|
||
|
the file to be DBCS even if you do not specify IGCDTA(*YES) on the file creation
|
||
|
command.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Specify IGCDTA(*YES) on the CRTPRTF command when DBCS data is present
|
||
|
in the file, but is not indicated in DDS. For example, specify IGCDTA(*YES)
|
||
|
if the file sends messages that are DBCS (DDS keyword, MSGCON).</li>
|
||
|
<li>Each printed DBCS character is twice as wide as a printed alphanumeric
|
||
|
character. The location of a character on a printed page, as specified in
|
||
|
DDS, is affected by the value specified for the CPI and IGCCPI parameters
|
||
|
in the file description. Although the system does not use the CPI or IGCCPI
|
||
|
values to determine the printed length of a field, this value does affect
|
||
|
the physical space used on a printed form. <div class="p">The physical space occupied
|
||
|
on a printed form is also affected by the method used to print the shift-control
|
||
|
characters. Specify shift-control character printing in the file description
|
||
|
(IGCSOSI parameter on the CRTPRTF, CHGPRTF, and OVRPRTF commands). The IGCSOSI
|
||
|
value specified for the printer file is ignored for DBCS-graphic fields. These
|
||
|
fields are printed as if IGCSOSI(*NO) was specified. <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> DDS does not consider
|
||
|
the values specified for the CPI, IGCCPI, and IGCSOSI parameter values when
|
||
|
calculating the printed length. Therefore, overlapping might
|
||
|
occur when the field is actually printed, although the problem is not indicated
|
||
|
when the DDS file is compiled.</div>
|
||
|
</div>
|
||
|
<p>This information applies to constant
|
||
|
fields with DBCS data and to named fields.</p>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
<li>When using the reference function in a printer file, if you refer to a
|
||
|
field in a database file that has data type J, O, or E, DDS assigns data type
|
||
|
O for the field in the printer file. If you refer to a field that has data
|
||
|
type G, DDS assigns data type G for the field in the printer file.</li>
