  DFHD2EDF formats the screen for CEDF to display on
  execution of a DB2 command. The command execution complete
  screen which is built has a start field order X'1D'
  preceding the "P.AUTH=" field in the screen header which is
  followed by an attribute byte X'60', DFHBMPRO. The effect of
  this should have been to turn off highlighting for the
  subsequent fields. However, the X'1D' character was identified
  as non-EBCDIC by CEDF and replaced on the display by X'4B', a
  period. This meant that the following byte was not recognized
  as an attribute byte and was displayed as character '-'.

                       fullstop PK90237
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHEDFCB has been altered so that it no longer translates
  all characters in the display data formatted by a TRUE
  into EBCDIC.
  The displayable data for SQLERRMC will be scanned for any
  X'28' character and, if found, will convert it to X'4B'
  (period).
