Title:
Cpcurrent() in Pan Chinese Windows NT 4.0
I get the following results with cpcurrent() with these OS/FoxPro combinations:
1) Windows 3.2 Simplified Chinese / FoxPro 2.6a and VFP 3.0b
cpcurrent() = 936
cpcurrent(1) = 936
cpcurrent(2) = 936
1) Windows NT 4.0 Pan Chinese / FoxPro 2.6a
cpcurrent() = 0
cpcurrent(1) = 1252
cpcurrent(2) = 936
1) Windows NT 4.0 Pan Chinese / VFP 3.0b and VFP 5.0a
cpcurrent() = 936
cpcurrent(1) = 936
cpcurrent(2) = 936
My applications use the active codepage to select the language to display.
VFP 3.0b generates a GPF in the VFP300.ESL when a form is opened, but VFP 5.0a runs OK.
The Chinese strings are not displaying properly under VFP 5.0a. I get some Chinese characters mixed with '?' - question marks. We have the same mangled characters with 32bit Borland C++ 5.01 applications.
Since Pan Chinese NT supports both Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese with an English Windows front end, are the mangled strings I am getting the result of trying to display Simplified Chinese strings with the Traditional Chinese character set active?
Are there any recommendations for tweaking the application's runtime environment to solve these problems?
