V7FF8CNV converts text and literals in VPLUS/XL forms files,
from a Hewlett-Packard 7-bit national substitution
character set, to ROMAN8. V7FF8CNV is a special
version of FORMSPEC.PUB.SYS and is run the same way.
Before running this utility back up the forms file
(store to tape or SYSGEN), perform the following steps:
Configure your terminal for 8-bit operation.
Refer to System Startup, Configuration, and Shutdown Reference Manual (32650-90042) for information on peripheral configuration.
Run V7FF8CNV.PUB.SYS, stepping through each form,
field definition, save field, and function key label.
As each screen is presented on the terminal,
7-bit substitution characters have already been converted to their
ROMAN8 equivalent.
If the data is correct, press Enter and proceed to the
next screen. If not, correct the data, then press Enter to
continue.
After all screens are converted, recompile the forms file
as usual.
Conversion applies to substitution characters found in all source record
VPLUS/XL forms files with the following exception:
substitution characters for "[" and "]" are not
converted in screen source
records since these indicate start and stop of data fields.
The following would be converted:
Initial values in save field definitions.
Initial values in field definitions.
Literals in processing specifications.
