-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Maik,
Regardless whether you set or the "Multibyte Encoding" (which btw is NOT the same as UTF-8) the error message clearing indicates that the database expects UTF-8. You get the error because the file containing the chart of accounts is NOT encoding in UTF-8 (but most likely in Latin1). The easiest way to solve this problem is to change the file encoding to UTF-8 (using a UTF-8 enabled editor). Viel Glück!
