[kmymoney4] [Bug 357724] qif import defaults to UTF-8, need an option to choose other charsets
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=357724 --- Comment #9 from Jack--- I think the resolution was for me to update the manual and faq. Comment 6 also suggested an additional note be added to the import dialog - but I have not checked if this was done. It is probably safe to say fixed in 5.0 since I do not recall actually making the change to the docs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

(Only I missed the idea to open the import profile dialog ;-)... !) Thank you. The only thing to think about is to document this feature of import filter to help new users / prevent this question again.

Character-set conversion is one particular use of the import filter, but as there are others, I think it might be better instead of a hint about just one of them, to refer the user to the handbook section.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=357724 allanchanged: What|Removed |Added CC||agande...@gmail.com Ever confirmed|0 |1 Status|UNCONFIRMED |CONFIRMED --- Comment #1 from allan --- Are you having to download first, then save in ISO-8859-1 before import? Might your bank have a CSV format option, sometimes called excel or spreadsheet, as the CSV importer does allow you to select a character set? Otherwise, I'm afraid there might be a wait for a fix, and for your distro to pick it up. Separately, 4.6.6 is pretty old-hat now and it might be worth looking for 4.7.2. It won't help with your current problem, unfortunately, but numerous bugs have been fixed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
