I'm editing a file with SOURCE=EBCDIC in the profile.
I mark a block with CC line commands and enter a CREATE primary command for a file with SOURCE=ANSI in the profile.
The lines I copy are not translated to ASCII as I expect.
This used to work. I'm currently using SPFLite v3.0.23259

I have an old machine with SPFLite v2.5.22.066 - it works correctly there.

Somewhere between those two versions it stopped working.

Thanks
Peter

Peter: A lot of changes since that old release. I won't tackle it from that differences angle (almost impossible), but will get it resolved.

[UPDATE]

OK, corrected, I'll post a Beta later with the correction. Look for a version >= 23284

Meanwhile if you pre-allocate a nullfile with the new name and use REPLACE, it should work.
