Does anyone know of a way to translate UPPERCASE data to lowercase?
I've looked through the TSO manuals & did a search on this site & have found nothing documenting if it is possible to do this.

Kolusu,
I've looked at the manual & either the TRANSLATE command won't do
what I want it to do or I'm reading it wrong. I want to translate
variable UIDN with a value of XXXX to variable UIDN with a value of
xxxx. With the little bit of testing that I've done, it appears that the
TRANSLATE command will not translate from UPPERCASE to lowercase.
So again I ask the question, does anyone know of a way to do this??
