<h1 class="topictitle1">Enter DBCS data</h1>
<div><p>The rules for processing DBCS data across multiple lines are the
same on the Enter SQL Statements display and in the SQL prompter.</p>
<div class="section"><p>Each line must contain the same number of shift-in and shift-out
characters. When processing a DBCS data string that requires more than one
line for entering, the extra shift-in and shift-out characters are removed.
If the last column on a line contains a shift-in and the first column of the
next line contains a shift-out, the shift-in and shift-out characters are
removed by the prompter when the two lines are assembled. If the last two
columns of a line contain a shift-in followed by a single-byte blank and the
first column of the next line contains a shift-out, the shift-in, blank, shift-out
sequence is removed when the two lines are assembled. This removal allows
DBCS information to be read as one continuous character string.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>As an example, suppose the following WHERE condition were entered.
The shift characters are shown here at the beginning and end of the string
sections on each of the two lines. </p>
