Hi all,
I´m facing the following situation:
I have to write to a file the field tfgld008.desc from table tfgld008.
In the description I have fields like Ñ and ñ or ü.
When I see the output, I see a char like Ã. I have changed the LOCALE for the user without success.
Any suggestion?

Thank you in advance.

Looks like that field on my 4c4 system is just a simple mb string. How are you writing it out to a file?

This is for LN ... no sure on baan 4 ..

i had à in LN text.. when the text is printed to Excel report its being converted to >¼à so

what i understand is, any char beyond 127 ascii value is being encoded in TSS format in LN ( ie multibyte)
