Hi,

Is it possible to convert UTF-8 format input data to EBCDIC format in Cobol program.
If possible could somebody please share syntax for the conversion.
If not could you please suggest through which means I can do this conversion.

psmadhusudhan,

What version of COBOL do you have? Depending on the version of COBOL you can lookup the intrinsic functions FUNCTION NATIONAL-OF and FUNCTION DISPLAY-OF to perform the conversion.

Alternatively you can invoke z/OS Unicode services to perform the conversion.
