Hi Trevor,

Thank you so much for your information. I really appreciated.

I tried on that (binfile: )and it returns Chinese chararters instead of Arabic!? So, I tried again for displaying Thai characters; /file is .txt/. It works great!!!

Anyway, I keep working on "unicodeText" and "binfile" with "/.txt /files". They all work fine.

However, I found out that ".rtf" files cannot be displayed correctly, am I right? So, I have to save all the files to ".txt" as a Unicode format.

Thank you again.

Regards,
Marisa

I tried to display different languages in RunRev but it didn't work. I use "put" command to display the content of the file;


on openCard
   put URL "file:arabic.rtf" into fld Arabic
   ...
end openCard

However, all these files use just to see whether other languages can be displayed or not, no meaning. Still, they didn't display what I expected. May be I did sth wrong here.??


Hi Marisa,

When reading in Unicode files you to use binfile as opposed to file. You also need to set the unicodeText property of the field. So I think the above would look something like this (not tested):

set the unicodeText of field "Arabic" to URL "binfile:arabic.rtf"

For more tips on unicode click on the "Topics" button in the Revolution help window and type unicode into the search field (with "Filter with:" selected). This provides some useful information.
