.SH "DESCRIPTION" 
.PP 
Sets the input encoding for all alpha fields. It is used when 
data is stored into a record. The encoding must 
be a name as it is described by the man and info pages of 
\fBrecode\fP or \fBiconv\fP 			whatever is used. A common value is `latin1' on Unix 
systems. If you do not set the encoding the function PX_get_data_alpha(3) 
will return field data in the original encoding otherwise it will 
recode the field data. 
.PP 
This function is a short cut form PX_set_parameter(pxdoc, 
"inputencoding", encoding) and is deprecated. 
.SH "RETURN VALUE" 
.PP 
Returns \-2 if recoding is not supported and a value < 0 in case of 
an error, otherwise 0.
