Hi Ray, Yes. To display UTF8, you need to convert it to UTF16 before setting the unicodeText of a field. You can also convert the unicodeText of a field to UTF8 before writing it to a file. The functions are
-- convert from UTF8 to UTF16 uniEncode(myUTF8,"UTF8") -- convert from UTF16 to UTF8 uniDecode(myUTF16,"UTF8") To convert from plain text to UTF8 you can do this: uniDecode(uniEncode(myEnglish,"ANSI"),"UTF8") -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Send me a friend request on Facebook if you like https://www.facebook.com/marksch On 11 sep 2011, at 23:57, Ray Horsley wrote: > Hi all.
