tablename

Name of a case table in the convmap.cp file.

This table establishes case rules for the code page that the AVM uses in memory. The code page is specified by the InternalCode 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 tell the AVM to convert all characters to uppercase during input.

To retrieve the value of this startup parameter at runtime, use the SESSION system handle.
