Polish Characters

Hello,

I have a strange problem, we are translating our C++ Builder application into Polish and mostly its going well. However I seem to be having problems with Polish characters at some stages. What I do is:

1 - Create a dictonary from my English strings
2 - Export to Excel and get these translated (with Polish characters)
3 - Import the Excel back into the dictonary (Polish characters are still there)
4 - Use this dictonary to auto translate my SIL file from my application (Polish characters appear in SIL editor)

However now if I close and reopen the SIL file the Polish charaters are all gone, and if I import the SIL file into Builder there are no Polish characters?

Thanks

Charles

Hello,


Do you have specified under Charsets section proper charset for Polish language?

After some playing around I found if I do all the following it works perfectly:

1 - Make sure my english windows is set to have Polish as the non-unicode supported language (set in control panel somewhere)

2 - Set the charset of all polish translations to EASTEUROPE

3 - Set the font to Arial Unicode MS

Once I did all these its now appears to work well.

Thanks

Charles
