DBF and PRG to UTF8

[radohabjan]

Hello friends,

are there any tools to convert DBF's and PRG's from ANSI to UTF8 ( I have a lot of files )

1. DBF is a simple format and is not intended for it, I'm not sure it should be

2. use an editor that has this capability, see notepad++

Our member Kevin (KCARMODY) is UTF8 expert and will surely know.
Or Rathi ?

Hi...
In Notepad++ , "Config" , "Preferences" , "New File" ... mark "UTF-8 without BOM" and "Apply to ANSI file open" .
Open you ansi file and save.

Or open you file, "Encoding" , "Convert to UTF-8 without BOM" , and Save.

Thx for the answers.

I'm using Notepad++ and I know for this functions, but I have a lot of prg's, so I will need more time and deal with two versions (ANSI and UTF8).

you could a write a simple PRG that reads-in the ANSI PRG and rewrite them to UTF8 (with aonther name, best)

as i can say you need to convert only when have sign > CHR(128) which is in 1/100 of my Source Code.
i do copy those Source Code into 1 x *.PRG so i have to take care only on 1 x *.PRG for OEM / ANSI / UFT8
