ILE COBOL Programmer's Guide

Configuration Section

You can use DBCS characters in comment entries only in the Configuration Section paragraph. All function-names, mnemonic-names, condition-names, and alphabet-names must be specified with alphanumeric characters. For the SOURCE-COMPUTER and the OBJECT-COMPUTER entry, use the alphanumeric computer name:

IBM-ISERIES

You cannot use mixed literals in the Configuration Section. Instead, use alphanumeric literals to define an alphabet-name and the literal in the CURRENCY SIGN clause of the SPECIAL-NAMES paragraph. There is no DBCS alphabet or class. Use the EBCDIC character set instead.
