tablename

The name of a case table in the convmap.cp file.

Use Case Table (-cpcase) to specify the case table. This table establishes case rules for the code page used in memory. The code page is specified by the Internal Code Page (-cpinternal) parameter. The case rules are used by the CAPS and LC functions. Also, in a character field format you can use an exclamation point (!) to convert all characters to uppercase during input.

To retrieve the value of this startup parameter at run time, use the SESSION System handle.
