'u00A3' in file

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

i have pound sign in my file.have to update the database table.

to open file iam using:

OPEN DATASET p_ifile FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING UTF-8 IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS .

Its uploading into internal table but instead of £ sign its updating # into the table.

Having said that when I use

OPEN DATASET p_ifile FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE .

its throwing me a bug .

if i use

OPEN DATASET p_ifile FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING default.

program dumps when reading the data from file.

plz advise.

Hi ,

It is considering the pond sym as the tab space in the internal table.

Will the '£' actually be updated in the table or can you try to get rid of it?

Please try with addition

ENCODING NON-UNICODE in OPEN DATASET

this option uses default code page from table TCP0C.

I think UTF-8 is as same as codepade 1100. and Euro sign not supported with UTF-8
