TITLE: 3270 AS/400 Display of Underscore & Column Separator
DOCUMENT #: TB.S.3-146
DATE: September 20, 1991
PRODUCT: 3270 LAN Workstation for DOS
PRODUCT VERSION: ALL
SUPERSEDES: NA
SYMPTOM: Underscore and Column Separators appear as reverse image on VGA,
EGA and CGA monitors.
ISSUE/PROBLEM
The 3270 LAN Workstation does not support the graphical underscore
character on color monitors.
The 5250 Column Separator is automatically changed to an underscore, thus
displaying in reverse image.
SOLUTION
The DOS "MODE" command provides an alternative:
From the DOS prompt enter:
MODE MONO
WSLAN (to load the 3270 LAN Workstation)
MODE CO80
This will cause the AS/400 session to display in monochrome mode thus
providing the underscore and column separators, while PC applications will
still appear in color display mode. The user will be able to toggle
between an AS/400 session in mono mode and a network application (such as
Wordperfect) in color mode.
The reverse image block that appears on the color display screen for
underscore and column separator fields will no longer be present.
