>>Hi all
>>I am having a Codepage nightmare with an app i wrote for a Spanish company.
>>They have old data ( originally from Visual dBase ) with Spanish data in it. I wrote an utility that takes those dBase tables, reformats, and enters the data into our application database.
>>The problem is that i use Hebrew Enabled Windows, and that the specific characters get "lost in translation" somewhere in the way.
>>Now when they run the app with the new data, even if being in a Spanish environment, they see geebrish instead of the special Spanish chars.
>>
>>When the data transform process was small and easy, i just had them run it there directly, but now, i have to do this process in my computer.
>>
>>Thanks in advance for your help

I am using Windows XP. I can switch to Spain in the location, and take out Hebrew from the 'non-unicode programs'. Is that what you mean?
