This Natural profile parameter allows you to overwrite the definitions in
the translation table NTTAB2
as contained in the
configuration module
NATCONFG
.
The NTTAB2
table is the alternate input translation
table for the secondary character set used when the profile/session parameter
PM
is set to
PM=C
.
TAB2
corresponds to the
NTTAB2
macro in the Natural parameter module NATPARM
.
Possible settings | See TAB2 Parameter Syntax below. | |
---|---|---|
Default setting | As specified within the macro NTTAB2 in
NATCONFG .

|
Dynamic specification | yes | This parameter can only be specified dynamically. In the Natural
parameter module NATPARM , the macro
NTTAB2 must be used instead.
|
Specification within session | no |
The following topics are covered below:
The TAB2 parameter is specified as follows:
TAB2=(a1,a2,b1,b2,c1,c2,...) |
You specify pairs of characters, the first character of a pair being the character to be translated, the second character of a pair being the character into which the first character is to be translated.
You can specify each character either as the one-byte character itself (enclosed in apostrophes) or as the two-byte hexadecimal representation of that character.
The NTTAB2
macro is specified as follows:
NTTAB2 a1,a2,b1,b2,c1,c2,... |
NTTAB2 5E,'Ä','ö',78,FF,00,'ü','Ü'
In this example, the character represented by H'5E'
is
translated into 'Ä'
, 'ö'
into the character
represented by H'78'
, the character represented by
H'FF'
into the character represented by H'00'
, and
'ü'
into 'Ü'.
With the TAB2 parameter, you must enclose the entire string of character pairs in parentheses, for example:
TAB2=(5E,'Ä','ö',78,FF,00,'ü','Ü')
