I have a wierd issue - any suggestions are welcome.

This is my code:


DEFINE FILE CAR
SP/A1 = HEXBYT(160, 'A1');
END
-*
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT SP
COUNTRY
HEADING
"END
-RUN

The sp on my machine displays as '?' It used to work (display spaces). The same code on my coworker shows the spaces correctly.

SP/A1....

It's fine for me under 4.3.6. Shows space.

Perhaps your browser has a different default language. In ASCII the 160 under extended is actually the a with the ` above it.

I know when we went from mainframe to ascii world we had an issue with conversion using the CTRAN function. Had to change the number we were using.

Got it fixed. As suspected it was IE setting. View->Encoding->Auto Select did the magic.
