AS
Specifies that characters contained in character (C-type) data
constants (DCs) and literals are converted into ASCII characters
using the ASCII translation table provided with High Level Assembler.
xx
Specifies that characters contained in character (C-type) data
constants (DCs) and literals are converted using a user-supplied
translation table. The translation table must be named
ASMALTxx.
Notes:
Using the TRANSLATE option when you have also specified the
DBCS option can cause erroneous translation of double-byte
data in C-type constants. G-type constant data is not affected.
