Problem with special characters in FM SAVE_TEXT

[Former Member]

Hi all.

I'm using the function module SAVE_TEXT to upload new texts.

But in some lines i have special characters lines the line below :

 Kutscher/Kießling 

And when there's a special character, the text is upload and saved but this character is transformed.

How can i keep the text with the special characters ? I think i need to use UTF8 text format but i don't see this option in the FM SAVE_TEXT.

Any idea ?

Thanks for your help.

Sorry,

In fact after debugging the application, i noticed that the problem doesn't come from the update but from the reading of the file.

To read i use the FM Gui_upload when frontend and Open DATASET when reading from a server.

What's really strange is that if we just have a few lines in the file, the special characters are read correctly. But when the file has 40000 lines, something happens that transforms these special characters ...

Anyone ever faced a problem like that ?

Solution : Problem was the format of the text file. We were using UTF-8 as always.

I saved the file in ANSI and now that's OK.
