<h1 class="topictitle1">IGCANKCNV (Alphanumeric-to-DBCS Conversion) keyword</h1>
<div><p>Use this field-level keyword to convert alphanumeric characters
to equivalent DBCS characters (Japanese only).</p>
<div class="section"><p>Each DBCS character is printed twice as wide as a printed alphanumeric
character.</p>
<p>This keyword has no parameters.</p>
<p>In addition to converting
alphanumeric characters, the system adds shift-control characters at the beginning
and end of converted character strings.</p>
<p>For example, the string</p>
<pre>ABCDE</pre>
<p>appears
as:</p>
<pre>0<sub>E</sub>A B C D E0<sub>F</sub></pre>
<p>after
it is converted. Note that shift-control characters were added to the string
(0<sub>E</sub>=shift-out, 0<sub>F</sub>=shift-in).</p>
<p>You may specify IGCANKCNV
for any named field.</p>
<p>Consider the following information
when using the IGCANKCNV keyword:</p>
<ul><li>The converted characters are printed according to the instructions specified
for printing DBCS data, such as expanded characters. For example, if you specify
the CHRSIZ(2) keyword, the characters converted by this keyword are doubled
in width.</li>
<li>This conversion does not affect other attributes of a file. For example,
if you specify this DDS keyword for a field that contains floating-point data,
the system leaves the data in the floating-point format. Only the printed
appearance of the field changes. Also, any other attributes defined for the
field are still applicable, even those that are not valid for DBCS fields.</li>
<li>The following DDS keywords are ignored when you specify the keyword IGCANKCNV:
<p>BLKFOLD<br />
CPI<br />
DFT<br />
IGCALTTYP</p>
</li>
</ul>
<ul><li>The length of the printed string of characters expanded
by the IGCANKCNV function is at least two times the length of the original
string plus two positions for the shift-control characters. For example, after
a string of four Katakana characters is converted, its length is: <pre>10 ((4 characters by 2) + 2 shift-control characters)</pre>
<p>If you specify additional characters to be included in the string, such as
with the EDTWRD function, those characters also are expanded and the length
of the string changes accordingly. For example, suppose you specify
a 4-position field that also includes a dollar sign and a decimal point, such
as:</p>
<pre>$12.34</pre>
<p>After the field is
converted, the field length is 14. The four numbers in the field are expanded
(eight positions), the dollar sign and the decimal point are expanded (four
positions) and shift-control characters are added (two positions).</p>
</li>
<li>The field for which IGCANKCNV is specified should not contain any DBCS
data. The system does not support conversion of fields with both alphanumeric
and DBCS data. If a field with IGCANKCNV contains DBCS characters, the results
of the conversion cannot be predicted.</li>
<li>The field for which IGCANKCNV is specified cannot be a DBCS-graphic field
(a field with a data type of G).</li>
<li>The system replaces unprintable alphanumeric characters before it converts
them to equivalent DBCS characters as specified by the RPLUNPRT value on the
Create Printer File (CRTPRTF) command.</li>
<li>The output must be printed on a DBCS printer.</li>
<li>A warning message appears if IGCANKCNV is specified in a file created
with DEVTYPE(*IPDS).</li>
<li>For files created with DEVTYPE(*AFPDS), characters in the field specified
with IGCANKCNV are printed using the font identified by the IGCCDEFNT keyword.</li>
<li>IGCANKCNV cannot be specified on a record or on a field in a record if
that record also contains COLOR, BARCODE, or LPI.</li>
<li>Option indicators are not allowed with IGCANKCNV.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example</h4><p>The following example shows how to specify
the IGCANKCNV keyword on the DDS coding form.</p>
<pre>|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8
00010A*
00020A*
00030A R RECORD CHRSIZ(2) SKIPB(3)
00040A FLDA 400 20SPACEA(2)
00050A FLDB 80A 20SPACEA(2) CHRISIZ(1)
00060A FLDC 20A 20SPACEA(2) IGCANKCNV
A</pre>
<p>The alphanumeric characters printed from FLDC are converted
to equivalent DBCS characters. These converted characters are then expanded
because the record was specified with the DDS keyword CHRSIZ(2).</p>
