Special Characters Error (During Upgrade 4.6b to ECC 6.0)

[abhishek_bhattacharjee]

Hello,

We are stuck in a problem, some of the programs are giving errors like

"In Release 4.0, the special character "Ñ" - as here in the name "AÑO1" - is no longer allowed."

How do I resolve problem relating to special characters like Ñ.

Many of our programs have same kind of error as people on client place are using spanish keyboard.

Can it be resolved by code page? If yes, how?

Please help…

Regards,

Abhishek...

Hi Abhishek...

Is the system unicode or non-unicode?... did the upgrade involved a unicode conversion?

Hello Juan,

Our project does requires an unicode conversion at the later stage.

But presently I did found some issues related to the Unicode error.

The same code is working on the Non-unicode system which is 4.6B but not on ECC 6.0 system.

what difference will it make if the systems are Unicode and Non-unicode?

How to correct this error.

Kind Regards,

Abhishek.

HI Abhshk,

Have you trying installing Spanish language via SMLT?

Hello,

Thank you for your replies,

Yes, the spanish language is uploaded via Tcode SMLT...

I believe we have a problem related to the code page.

When ever statement like this is encountered we are getting syntax error.

e.g. DATA: ño(2).

as special characters ñ are no longer allowed.

Kind Regards,

Abhishek.

Hello Juan,

Thank you so much for your replies...

Spanish language is not on the list in program "RSCPINST".

Does Unicode system´s code page supports all kind of languages?

Can you please check the statement data: ñ(2) type n. works fine in a unicode code page. My system´s code page is presently on single code page.

Kind Regards,

Hello Abhshk,

Unicode supports all languages on a single code page.

Spanish language works on code page 1100. Please check if it is there in you system.

Error Description

"In Release 4.0, the special character "Ñ" - as here in the name "AÑO1" - is no longer allowed."

Why I am getting the error as "Special Character Ñ No longer allowed in release 4.0".

Can you please check my statement

data ño(2).

if you have a unicode system. If this works?

Kind Regards,

Abhishek.
