Umlauts in Rave

[Randy Adanza]

Cheers,

I have a Rave report, and this report is save as a PDF which then is called
by my Intraweb Application.
In one of my records, I have a text that has an "o umlaut" and this is save
in the database as Ö so when
I view this from my Rave report it shows as a abcÖdef, instead of
abcÖdef.

How do i show this properly in Rave Report?

TIA
Randy.

I have fixed although there may be a more better approach.
the way I fixed it is by going to the ongetdatatext event of the DataText
and placing this code there.

bvar := Pos ('ö', value);
if bvar > 0 then
delete (value, bvar, 6);
Insert ('ö', value, bvar);
end if;

now I do this for each of the html codes that we want to capture.

thanks.

You should do

bvar := Pos ('ö', value);
while bvar > 0 then
delete (value, bvar, 6);
Insert ('ö', value, bvar);
bvar := Pos ('ö', value);
end if;

otherwise you get replaced onlk the first occurance of the character.
