Summary
The MBCS_CHAR_ procedure indicates whether a string of bytes is part of an HP
multibyte character set (MBCS) and that
testmbcschar points to the first byte of a
valid character of
charset MBCS.
The MBCS_CHAR_ procedure also performs a positive range test on all bytes of the
referenced character. If all bytes pass the range test, TRUE is returned, otherwise
FALSE is returned.

character sets listed under
charset.
