iSeries Connection problem

Hi, I have two AS/400 iSeries: DEV and PROD

I use almost identical connection strings, but the CCSID translate does not work for the DEV machine

On the PROD box I use connection string:

OLEDB CONNECT32 TO [Provider=IBMDASQL.DataSource.1;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=KPITRANS;Data Source=dafehvuk400;Protection Level=None;Extended Properties="";Transport Product=Client Access;SSL=DEFAULT;Force Translate=65535;Default Collection=KPITRANS;Convert Date Time To Char=TRUE;Catalog Library List="";Cursor Sensitivity=3;Use SQL Packages=False;SQL Package Library Name="";SQL Package Name="";Add statements to SQL package=True;Unusable SQL Package Action=1;Block Fetch=True;Data Compression=True;Sort Sequence=0;Sort Table="";Sort Language ID="";Query Options File Library="";Trace=0;Hex Parser Option=0;Maximum Decimal Precision=31;Maximum Decimal Scale=31;Minimum Divide Scale=0;Library List="";Naming Convention=0;Query Optimize Goal=0;Query Storage Limit=-1;Handle Numeric Data Errors=1;Keep Trailing Blanks=False;Application Name=QvConnect32.EXE;Decfloat Rounding Mode=0;Decfloat Error Option=0;Client User ID="";Client WorkStation Name="";Client Program ID="";Client Accounting="";Block Size=0;Concurrent Access Resolution=0;Xml Strip Whitespace=True];

PERFECT, works a treat!

But on DEV box I use

OLEDB CONNECT32 TO [Provider=IBMDASQL.DataSource.1;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=mlloyd;Data Source=10.160.28.71;Protection Level=None;Extended Properties="";Initial Catalog=NEWDEV;Transport Product=Client Access;SSL=DEFAULT;Force Translate=65535;Default Collection=MLLOYD;Convert Date Time To Char=TRUE;Catalog Library List="";Cursor Sensitivity=3;Use SQL Packages=False;SQL Package Library Name="";SQL Package Name="";Add statements to SQL package=True;Unusable SQL Package Action=1;Block Fetch=True;Data Compression=True;Sort Sequence=0;Sort Table="";Sort Language ID="";Query Options File Library="";Trace=0;Hex Parser Option=0;Maximum Decimal Precision=31;Maximum Decimal Scale=31;Minimum Divide Scale=0;Library List="";Naming Convention=0;Query Optimize Goal=0;Query Storage Limit=-1;Handle Numeric Data Errors=1;Keep Trailing Blanks=False;Application Name=QvConnect32.EXE;Decfloat Rounding Mode=0;Decfloat Error Option=0;Client User ID="";Client WorkStation Name="";Client Program ID="";Client Accounting="";Block Size=0;Concurrent Access Resolution=0;Xml Strip Whitespace=True];

Data is arriving as EBCDIC instead of ASCII

Can anyone help?

Regards, Marty.

I solved the issue by changing

Force Translate=65535

Force Translate=37
