The following examples show how INDEX(string_1, string_2) operates when the server character set for both arguments is KANJI1 and the client character set is KanjiEBCDIC.

Note that for KanjiEBCDIC, results are returned in terms of physical units, making INDEX DB2-compliant in that environment.

IF string_1 contains … AND string_2 contains … THEN the result is …
MN<AB> <B> 6
MN<AB> <A> 4
MN<AB>P P 9
MX N<AB>P <B> 7
