Code page problem - unicode character

[Former Member]

Hi ,

Iam working on Report which will transfer the data to Application server .

My selection screen contains the Language option in which the user want to see the role descriptions.

when i try to download the data with Chinese language ,i could see '#' or junk values , as the Code Page conversion was not happening.

So i have changed my "open Dataset " to OPEN DATASET lv_path FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE CODE PAGE 8404.

As Code page of Chinese is 8404.

Still i could not see the correct text of chinese even after this change.

Please guide me where iam wrong.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

My selection screen contains the Language option in which the user want to see the role descriptions.

Do your see appropriate chinese fonts in the SAP system ?

Do you have chinese fonts/locale installed on your desktop ?

Hope this helps.

Hi Naveen,

do you still get hashes (#) in this case (legacy mode) ?

I assume your system is based on Unicode - please confirm.
