Hi Kavitha,
Hi,
I am a newbie, can anyone please tell me how to display the
contents of file without any special characters. I tried and the
result has lots of special characters that are not in the file. I
am working on Mac, in windows it works fine.
welcome to the wonderful and exciting world of crossplatform software
development :-D
As you already experienced, Windows uses a different text encoding
than the mac does.
So if you want to display a text file created on windows, you have to
convert it to mac encoding
using the "isotomac" function like this:
...
put url("file:the_windows_text_file.txt") into win_text
put isotomac(win_text) into mac_text
put mac_text into fld "Field for Mac display"
...
Or in a hard to read one-liner:
...
put isotomac(url("file:the_windows_text_file.txt")) into fld "Field
for Mac display"
...
;-)
Hope that helps.
Thank youKavitha
Regards from germany
