Small issue about correct writing - solved
Posted: Mon Sep 29, 2025 08:15 AM

Hello,

In English we say : "I have updated my software".

In Dutch, "updated" is translated als "geüpdatet", the only correct way in my language.

Since FiveWin 5.06, "geüpdatet" is shown like "genpdated". The "n" is a very small "n", much smaller than the other characters.

Anyone who knows why this is happening?

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

Regards,

Dear Michel,

good morning,

what codepage are you using in your app ? In example for Spain we use:

REQUEST HB_CODEPAGE_ESWIN

...

hb_SetCodePage( "ESWIN" )

regards, saludos

Hello Antonio,

Thanks for your quick response.

I have this in my application:
   #ifdef __HARBOUR__
      REQUEST HB_CODEPAGE_FRWIN
      SET(_SET_CODEPAGE,"FRWIN")
   #endif

Regards,

Antonio,

I found the problem.

Before I start my main application, I start a small task which checks if an update is available.

The definition of codepage wasn't in it.

I have added it, and now everything is ok.

Thank you very much.
