In order for the COBOL Syntax Checker in SEU to behave in the same manner as the ILE COBOL compiler, you must set the CCSID of the SEU job to be the same as the CCSID of the primary source file that you are editing. In most situations, they will already be the same. However, if they are different, you can change the CCSID of the job by specifying the new CCSID number in the CCSID parameter of the CHGJOB command. For example, to change the CCSID of the current job to 280, type:
CHGJOB CCSID(280)
For more information on changing the attributes of a job, see the CHGJOB command in the CL and APIs section of the Programming category in the iSeries 400 Information Center at this Web site -http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/infocenter.
