*Description*
-------------
If during export to the dBase file format the data to be exported
contains characters that are not representable in the selected
character encoding, the database drivers correctly refuse to write the
record and an error message is displayed, which previously just was
some "general I/O error encountered" message.

The error message for such state of non-convertible characters is now:

Cell $(ARG1) contains characters that are not representable in the
selected
target character set "$(ARG2)".

where $(ARG1) is replaced with the cell address, e.g. B1, and $(ARG2)
is replaced with the UI name of the character set, e.g.
Cyrillic (DOS/OS2-866/Russian)
