Error description
You have updated DFHWBUD in DFHCNV to correctly use the correct clientcp and srvercp, 950 and 937 respectively. However, when reviewing the data before and after conversion happens, a x'4E' is being converted into a x'40'. This causes problems later because x'4EF8' gets converted to x'40F8' and x'40F8' is not valid DBCS values for the HOST and can not be converted to big5 format.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DBCS data with a DOCUMENT SYMBOLLIST * * is corrupted. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** An EXEC CICS DOCUMENT CREATE SYMBOLLIST command is issued. The SYMBOLLIST data is in codepage 937 and any DBCS characters are correctly inside SO/SI pairs. DFHDHSL passes the symbol list to DFHWBFM for processing. DFHWBFM handles any unescaping that may be required. DFHWBFM has incorrectly determined that the data is in an SBCS codepage so ignores SO and SI and processes DBCS characters as single bytes. In this case a x'4E' (first byte of a valid DBCS character) is found and replaced with x'40'. This corrupts the DBCS character. When the document is eventually sent to the client it is converted to ASCII (950) and incorrect data is displayed.
Problem conclusion
DFHWBFM has been changed to recognize the DBCS data correctly.
