Character ñ changed to Ã± after enter key pressed

Hi there

I have this HATS V6.0.4 app. working on a WAS v6.0.2 and a user report me
this bug. Every time they put a "ñ" caracter in any field after pressing the
enter key the character is replaced by "Ã±" and sent to the host, The
result is that the user has to change this value again for the original "ñ"
in a green screen. This sound like a software problem to me, but I'm looking
for some problem like this already solved and find the solution.

The HATS application use the '284' code page. and the "ñ " characters
displayed for the systems show ok, the problem is just in the input fields
after pressing the enter key.

Any help will be welcome

Ivan
