Hello,

I hope somebody can help me.

I don't get special characters (Ü É , umlauts) in forms.

I have following setup:

Debian 7
IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 11.50.UC7IE
4GL Compiler Version  1.2 Build Level  33
Database Nls Info: NLS Capabilities and Attributes   en_US.819 Collating
Sequence   en_US.819 CType
No locale environment settings, should default all to UTF-8.

A table like this:

create table cl(name char(10));
insert into cl values ("ÜÉ");

A "listing" like this:

=============================
database test

main
define cr record like cl.*

declare cur cursor for select * from cl
foreach cur into cr.*
   display cr.*
end foreach

end main
-----------------------------
Output:

name

ÜÉ
=============================


A form like this:

=============================
database formonly

screen
{
[f10                       ]
}
end
attributes
f10 = formonly.nam;
end
=============================

And a UI program like this:

=============================
database test

main
define cr record like cl.*
define nam like cl.name

declare cur cursor for select * from cl
foreach cur into cr.*

let nam=cr.name
open form f from "b" display form f

input by name nam without defaults

end foreach

end main
-----------------------------
Output:
[[M-C~QM-CM-1M-C~IM-CM-)   ]
=============================

I'm not shure if the problem is the compiled program or the terminal
emulator Putty@Windows.

Thank you, Peter.
