Specifies whether EBCDIC data should be converted to ASCII during DSNTIAUL imports. The syntax is:
EBCDIC_TO_ASCII = {Y | N | NA} [,{Y | N | NA}]...;
where the number of Ys, Ns and NAs is equal to the number of fields in the table. If EBCDIC_TO_ASCII is set to N, data are not converted to ASCII. If EBCDIC_TO_ASCII is set to Y (default), the data are assumed to be EBCDIC and are converted to the ASCII equivalent. If EBCDIC_TO_ASCII is set to NA, conversion is not applicable for the field type.
EBCDIC_TO_ASCII is an optional Batch Import command.
For example:
EBCDIC_TO_ASCII = n,n,n,n;
defines this import command so that none of the fields of a four-column table are converted to ASCII in this transaction.
