Exporting UTF8 column names from DBC, using CHR(26) ^Z SUB char... - response (1) by dnoeth

But what are you going to do with this data? Load it back to Teradata using BTEQ or a load utility? Use it in a BTEQ .RUN? There's the CHAR2HEXINT function to return the hex representation. BTEQ DATA will not replace the substitute character. Btw, the characters '001A' or 'FFFD' will return an error message as default, so your system seems to be modified to accept them... Dieter
