WPF TextBox german text

Hallo Herr Riemke

Try to call the following statement before reading the file:

CALL  "PC_WIN_SET_CHARSET" USING BY VALUE 0.    

*> This sets up so that all conversions are ANSI

It's wrong!

The file is ANSI!

The Compiler Show me the right text

But if i let run the the WPF side the text is wrong!!!

It is not a part of converting!!!

It is a bug in the Compiler!

C# and VB is working with this data well!

If the field that you are reading in is defined as PIC X then it will be read as ANSI data.

The TextBox::Text property uses Unicode as do all .NET strings so the data needs to be converted before it is displayed.

The following works for me where my-ansi-field would contain German characters read from a file:

  01 my-ansi-field pic x(5).

  01 myarray type Byte[].

       set myarray to my-ansi-field

       set self::textBox1::Text to type System.Text.Encoding::Default::GetString(myarray)

This may not be the best way to do this and I am open to suggestions from others but it appears to work correctly on my system.

When you state that this works correctly in C#, how are you reading the data into the C# program if it resides in an ISAM file?          

Thanks.
