The session parameter TCU is identical to the
session parameter TC. The difference is that
the trailing characters are always stored in Unicode format. This allows you to
specify trailing characters with mixed characters from different code pages,
and assures that always the correct character is displayed independent of the
installed system code page.
With this session parameter, you can specify trailing characters that are
to be displayed immediately to the right of a field output with a
DISPLAY statement.
The width of the output column is enlarged accordingly.
| Possible settings | any character | Up to 10 characters may be
specified.
Trailing characters may optionally be specified enclosed within apostrophes, in which case any characters can be specified. Any character string specified which contains a closing parenthesis or a quotation mark must be enclosed within apostrophes. |
