printing Arabic INDIC digits without implementing UNICODE

Hello experts,

I am woking in a non-unicode envorinment and am looking for the best advice to print arabic digits on a smartform. Even though the data is stored in the correct language (Arabic), the numeric data is represented in the logon language, which is english. We have the arabic code page loaded and it is an MDMP environment. So far, the only way to render the arabic numeric characters or glyph is to attach 'XEE' to the data which causes it to appear as the numberic with an apostrophe.

Can anyone suggest another hex character, (which would represent an invisible ascii code) to be used to print the arabic indic digits.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Regards,

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

If you are using windows Regional Setting, goto control panel Regional options tab select language and then customize , in numbers tab choose arabic digits.
