7–10 Multinational Character Sets
Character Set Selection Command (ISET)
Purpose Accesses one of the 32 multinational character sets from Table 7–3. Use
this command to access a different character set from the configured
power–up default character set.
Mode NORMAL, CREATE, and EXECUTE
Format In Normal and Execute modes
: (cc)ISET; n
In the Create mode (SFCC not required): ISET; n
(cc) Represents the Special Function Control Character.
ISET The Multinational Character Set command; enter
ISET.
n The character substitution set number; enter a value
ranging from 0 to 31. Character sets 0 through 23
represent resident character sets. Values from 24
through 31 correspond to the customized USET
character sets 1 through 8, respectively.
For example, refer to Table 7–3 on page 7–9. If you
want to use the User Set 1 created in the example on
page 7–9, call ISET;24. Similarly, if you want User
Set 5 that you had previously defined, call ISET;28 to
select and print the User Set 5 substitution set.
Comments You can issue the ISET command as many times within a form as needed.
The character set selected will remain active until a new character set is
selected. If you choose an incorrect character set value or make a syntax
error, an error message will result. If a value for n is not specified, an error
message will print.
Using the ISET command in the Execute mode declares the character set
for use in conjunction with the dynamic data within that Execute command.
Fixed form data specified in the Create mode is not affected by an ISET
command in the Execute mode. The character set selected will remain in
effect until another character set is selected.
