[RBASE-L] - Re: Contains with National charcters

[Alastair Burr]

Hi Gunnar,   I haven't got a Swedish keyboard layout available at the moment but I suspect that your problem is to do with the differentiation between upper and lower case (capitals & non-capitals) in the rbase.cfg case/fold/collate sections.   If you work out the 4 digit code for each upper and lower case pair you ought to be able to insert them in the appropriate section.   As always, make sure to keep a backup copy of the cfg file if you already have any personalisation in it.   I have to admit that I always insisted that nobody in the European offices used their accented and special characters unless they wanted to pay for me to visit them to correct their problems. It didn't make me popular but it did save the company some money!!   Regards, Alastair.       ----- Original Message ----- From: Gunnar Ekblad To: RBASE-L Mailing List Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2003 12:07 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Contains with National charcters At long last I have started my first Windows application. I have started with 6.5++ 1.864 If I rename dear employee# 131 to Mary �rnqvist in CONCOMP database If I then do R> sel all from employee where emplname contains �֒  *( Capital national character �) I will get One row as expected If I then do R> sel all from employee where emplname contains ���  *( Gemen (is that English for non capital?) national character �) I will get no rows satisie�.   If I repeat with T and t I will have the same result of 3 rows, that is :T is not case sensitive � seams to be!   It is in a dynamic where clause in a popup I need the search to valid for national charters without being casesensitive.   For version 1.864 I am not worried, but it seams to me that it is the same in 7.0 (After a minor test in DEMO-READ only version of 7.0 it seems that the problem stays in 7.0   Can I hope that R:DCC put this on the list of small things to fix?     Gunnar Ekblad
