Mat There is what I have in Protocol line: PROTOCOL LINE=0 BAUD=9600 DATA=8 STOP=1 NONE DISABLE -STRIP So, I believe it is fine. Thank you very much I know what to do, but it is much more work that I anticipated.

Probable Spam] Re: Re: [U2] RE:french characters Irina, the problem I think You have is that the file has characters like char(233) for e-acute but Your terminal(emulator) or port strips the leading bit making it the 7bit character char(105) = i on the display. ( 105 = 233-128) (( the 233=i is for the iso-8859-1 we use - french may be different )) Thus check Your PTERM settings by >PTERM DISPLAY make sure it has DATA=8 and NONE and -STRIP on the protocol line. ( wich means 8bit characters, no check digit and dond' strip bit 0 ) If this doesn't help You'll have to To verify what the characters aren't destroyed in the file. In unix use od -cx <filename> | more in universe ED in up-arrow mode will show the decimal value of each character > 127. When You have identified the value of each character used use CHAR(nnn) in Your program when You build your search pattern. ( You may find the iso encoding schemes on the web too ... if You can weed out what they used... ) HTH -- mats ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
