Hi Everyone,

Someone helped out with this 6 months ago when my VFP app was sending accented characters to a text file that Adobe was then opening and importing. At that time, the character was the accented e (é). Someone pointed me to this code which worked:

STORE STRCONV(lcOldChar,1) TO lcNewChar
STORE STRCONV(lcNewChar,9) TO lcNewChar

which essentially I used to convert the VFP data to double-byte chars and then to UTF-8 chars (which is what the xml/text file is in that Adobe uses).

This worked for quite a while until some user entered an accented z (ž - made with Alt+0158) and somehow the above process translates it to a bunch of chars:

ž

Which Adobe chokes on and does not translate back to the ž.

Anyone have any ideas of how to get around this?

Thanks,

Albert Gostick
