Hi all, I have installed Innovator-C on my Windows machine for local development. Everything is working fine. When I want to import (dbimport) a existing database with French characters, the import stops. The value of DB_LOCALE=EN_US.8859-1 and CLIENT_LOCALE=EN_US.CP1252. What is the code page for using a database with French characters? Thanks for your tips!

Hi Danny, 8859-1 has not defined some characters from 1252 codepage. That way, you will get an error when these are in the data. Try using 8859-15 as DB_LOCALE. That should cover all french characters. Marcus ----- Ursprüngliche Mail ----- Von: "DANNY DE KOSTER" <ddk@fidelity-soft.be> An: ids@iiug.org Gesendet: Donnerstag, 22.
