>The difference between Fox codepage and OS codepage is possible; you may set your config.fpw to a completely different codepage, and the tables, classes, forms, reports, menus and projects you create and the code you write will bear that mark. Still, if the OS has a different codepage, you may have trouble displaying your special characters: º (like in Timiºoara) may come up differently on your screen and reports. You need to have 1250 on your system for the fonts to come up right on the screen and in the reports, and, of course, the system fonts have to support the chosen codepage.

Just checked the difference - on this page, the º character shows as a s-cedilla if I choose Windows-CE codepage, and as a degree sign (small raised o) in Windows-Western (aka ISO). It happens just the same when you run your app, but there's no way in Fox to change the codepage you use for showing your visible strings to any other value than the one the OS uses (which I think sucks, but can't do much about it).
