Is there a way to check and see if a field contains a Unicode character?
Especially if the field contains a emoji.
Appreciate any help.
Thanks

Assuming your data is in a relational table...

Perhaps try converting the data to an alpha, after bringing the data back, and then doing a compare?

If only non unicode characters get converted, then perhaps the only items passing the WHERE TOTAL test will be items without the unicodes? 
TABLE FILE SPECIALOFFER
PRINT   DESCRIPTION
COMPUTE DESCRIPTION_A255/A255 = DESCRIPTION;
WHERE TOTAL DESCRIPTION EQ DESCRIPTION_A255; 
END

Thanks, David!
Unfortunately when I tried your suggestion it converted the EMJOI to "¦§¨©ª«¬®¯°±²³´µ¶·¸¹º»".
We are trying have the developers in SAP write abap code to scan for these issues. I was just hoping webfocus would be able to detect emjoi's.
I did open a case but they were unable to assist. Thanks
