I am trying to run a simple query in QMF and i get values for the columns and some of the fields as seen in QMF are having blank values.When i run the same query in SPUFI , the column which was having blanks has values like below
Code:

SELECT * FROM TABLENAME

Code:

......


Why is there a difference in displays ? My understanding is Blanks means Hexadecimal 4 0 (vertical) and Dot (.) means Hexadecimal 0 0 (vertical).
Can i have the link to the corresponding HEX values and the EBCIDIC values ?

Mfuser,


The difference in the displays depends on the default values set to display columns having NULL values. In QMF DSQCP_TENULL parameter controls the display of NULL values. The default value is -.

If you want to see the HEX values of a column then use the scalar function HEX. Check this link which explains in detail about the function.
