Hi Kiran,
first of all you need to logon in a language based on Eastern European Code Page.
I assume your system supports multiple code pages via MDMP ?
Then the data needs to be provided in Non-Unicode format ( It should be based on code page MS 1250 see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1250 ).

Hi Kiran,
I don't think 4.6c is Unicode compliant and so you need to select the appropriate code page before doing such activities.
This can be done via your GUI properties:
I hope this helps.

Hi Kiran,
The system/person that is sending you the text file - are they using a Windows based PC?
If so ask them what code page they are using.
Are you using windows XP or higher?
If not then you'll need to default their code page on your PC before you can upload the file correctly.
The set up SAP GUI to use the same code page and it should then work - I had a similar issue for Greek characters a few years ago so this should work.
Additionally this note should help you:
Note 1088209 - Help for troubleshooting: Code page display problems
Let us know how you get on.

Hi Vendetta,
they are using windows7 and even my pc also runs on windows 7 Professional.
They are sending notepad with UTF-8 encoding. when I am trying to upload these files, I am not getting the exact letters into my internal tables that are there in the Notepad.
Please let me know if you need any further information.
Many thanks,

Hi Kiran,
Windows 7 should be fine because you can see the letters in notepad, this confirms that the issue is with SAP.
You'll need to find the Polish and Czech code pages, set them up in the GUI (as described above in my earlier post) and then also log into SAP using the Polish/Czech language:
That should then allow GUI_UPLOAD to copy the text properly.

Hi,
Please pass your code page value in GUI_UPLOAD. Then it should be fine.

Hi Kiran,
Use "ws_upload" for your Release SAP 4.6c ,
Check this Note 387520 - New gui_upload/gui_download function modules

Hi Nils,
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, we use Eastern European Logon and our system (4.6C) is MDMP. The text file is UTF8 with Central European Script.
GUI_UPLOAD is not uploading the characers correctly into SAP internal table.
Appreciate if you share more details.

Kiran

Hi Kiran,
I don't think R/3 4.6C can handle UTF8 data properly ... I think you need to convert it to MS 1250.
As of R/3 4.7, you can do this with SAP notes 747615 and/or 752859.
You have to select 4110 as source and 1404 as target code page.
However there are multiple other tools to convert files.
Alternatively it might be possible to generate the file based on MS 1250 (This depends on how the file is created).
Best regards,
Nils

Hi,
Check the Note 387520. You might have to use it to get the Unicode capable GUI_UPLOAD.

Thanks Nils,
We have converted file to Windows-1250 and the characters have changed in the converted file as under.
Černá has become Èerná
Červená has become Èervená
Then we logon in CS langauge and uploaded the windows-1250 file and checked the content after upload. In SAP it is appearing as under.
Èerná
Èervená
Is this how it is stored in SAP? I feel it should be Černá instead of Èerná.
Thanks,
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
I think this is ok.
You just have to make sure to look correctly at the data:
1) Logon language CS
2) SAPGUI Character set:
Press ALT-F12 in SAPGUI
--> Character set
--> set to "Central European"
--> see SAP note 508854 for more info
In that case, the "È" should become a "Č"

Nils

Hi Nills,

Check the code-page.Else in the worst case you might have to install the language into the system using SMLT.
