ECN-XD101 Different character sets showing incorrectly in a query

Type of Change: Enhancement

Product: AcuXDBC

Module: AcuXDBC

New Version: 10.0

Machines Affected: Windows

Known Versions Affected: All

Description of enhancement

Previously, if an application such as Microsoft Query attempts to read data files containing OEM characters, the data would not display correctly.

A new configuration variable has been introduced that will translate entered data to and from the ANSI and the OEM character sets.

OEM_CHARACTER_SET

Setting this variable to ON TRUE, or YES causes XDBC to call a function that will translate the ANSI character set to the OEM character set. Data being read will be translated from the OEM character set to the ANSI character set.
