Convert Nulls

HostExplorer Programming

Convert Nulls

The CopyPS and CopyPSToString functions normally convert 3270/5250 Nulls to ASCII blanks when you copy text.

To prevent HLLAPI from converting nulls, add the following line to the EHLLAPI.Settings section in the HOSTEX.INI file.

[EHLLAPI.Settings]
Convert Nulls = Off

Note: 
  If you disable the Convert Nulls HLLAPI feature, you must use the STRLEN option to use explicit string lengths or change the EOT character from the default value of Null.
