Java API Get Doceument returning document as Binary
« on: October 18, 2010, 12:51:07 PM »
We are using a Java API to Get Documents and when the document is returned it is in Binary format.  Is there a way in the API to override this and have the document returned as ASCII?

Hi Russel.

Sounds like you need to use an output exit.  Are you loading EBCDIC text, and need it converted to ASCII for display on PCs?

We are retrieving old claim file data that was loaded as EBCDIC, which needs to be saved as ASCII to be reprocessed in a UNIX environment
