[Former Member]

Hi,

we have upgraded our system from 46b to ecc 6.0 unicode. We face following problem in file download to application server(solaris) using open dataset.

in output file hyphen(-) character is by special character â.

eg. if data in table is 'BANGALORE - 560038' is displayed as 'Bangalore â 560034' in application server file. if we download the same file to windows it shows proper data.

only when we open file in vi editor on application server , system shows this special character.

Kindly help.
