Title: D-List, D-Cube unicode support
Post by: Sander.McLean on 09 Apr 2008 12:30:52 AM
Hi,
Is there somebody know how to set up unicode support (Azeri Latin) in D-List and D-Cube? I need import from ASCII file or MS SQL database information in Azeri Latin in my D-List and D-Cube.
Thank you for your assistance.

Language setup is in analyst\tools\language. Try setting up desired fonts there.

Thank you ykud,

But we've try to do this, but error still there.
Our steps,
1. add Azeri(Latin) locale in Win2k3 Server, and Azeri(Latin) keyboard locale.
2. change analyst\tools\language --> font to palatino linotype (turkish). restart analyst.
3. open notepad and write
həzinə (if you will do that in english keyboard is - x'zin'
4. create new d-list and paste from notepad and we'll see following: x?zin?

also if we've create an excel file and then save as utf-8 text file and import in d-list - problem is still there

Have you changed Custom Fonts tool? (it's in the same menu, you'd need to restart analyst once more)
Changing font settings this way works for Cyrillic for sure.

yes, I've try this also. but nothing work good for me. Russian work fine and I'm able to create any D-Lists or D-Cube in Russian, but not in Azeri(Latin)

Then it won't work in Analyst, I guess.
I'd try using contributor translation to add azeri, since that's another mechanism and it's worth a 10min try.
