ACUODBC internation characters

| Hi !
Can anyone help me with this problem ?
- When I want to load the data from the ACUfiles in to f.e. Ms Excel,
special characters like =E8, =E9, =F6, ... are replaced by others. Reason
would be that AcuCocol works with the PC-8 charcter set, while windows
works with the ANSI-charcter set.
- In the 'ACUODBC advanced options' of the DSN-settings, I specified a
mapfile to solve this problem (the hex.dec. code for the client and the
DB are mentioned), but it still doesn't the conversion ...
f=2Ee. : the file mappings.txt contains the following lines:
0xFC 0x81
0xF6 0x94
0xD6 0x99
0xDC 0x9A
D6 hexadecimal =3D 214 decimal =3D =D6 in ANSI
99 hexadecimal =3D 153 decimal =3D =D6 in PC-8
Kind regards
Bruno

When setting up the DSN for AcuODBC there is an advanced option where
you can choose the ANSI character set. This should help.
