Hi,
OpenEdge 10.2B SP8
Windows
I have a character client and a gui client both running with code page 1252.
When I do ALT-137 in the gui client I see character "‰".
But when I do the same in a character client I see character "ë".
Character "‰" in the gui client is correct one.
What must I do so that I also see the "‰" in the character client when I'm doing ALT-137?
Kind regards,
Edwin.
Not sure but I suggest to look @your used font!
I needed to change my font from MS Sans serif to Microsft Sans serif to get other characters correct in 1252
Based on:

You will lose all line drawing characters - since these are not in 1252.
Beware of side effects!
It is still not working. What I understood from the articles you send me is that ISO and 1252 should not be used by character clients, they are GUI code pages. But now I wonder what if my client character session is ibm850, my GUI client is 1252 and my database is also 1252. Is this going to work?
I am using 11.6x64 (on Windows 10):
Same results with 10.2B08x64 (on Windows 10)
