The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft COM Transaction Integrator for CICS and IMS, version 4.0 SP2

SYMPTOMS
========

The problem occurs when using COM Transaction Integrator (COMTI) on a computer
running the Korean version of Windows NT Server. The locale specified for the
COMTI Remote Environment (RE) is also Korean. Code pages 933 (IBM EBCDIC -
Korean) and 949 (ANSI - Korean/Hangul) are used.

When a COMTI application method is invoked, the following runtime error entry
appears in the application event log. It relates to an [input] parameter of the
"String" type. The string is initialized to an empty string, or a single null
character, by the client application code.

  Event ID: 102
  Source: COMTI
  Type: Error
  Category: General

  (102) COM Transaction Integrator reported the following exception to the
  client:
