Chinese characters in filename

Former Member

After uploading a file in CV01N with Chinese characters in the filename, it cannot be subsequently opened in CV02N/3N. We get system message 26136 - File C:\xxxxx could not be accessed.

I can copy the file to my PC and open from there. When I do this the Chinese characters in the file name are converted to '#'.

Does anyone what I can do to open the file directly from CV02N/3N?

We are on ECC6, EHP6, SP12 and are Unicode compliant.

Hello Dean,


To be able to use Chinese characters in a file name system locale (i.e. the character set which matches the language of the system locale) must be set to Chinese as well.

Otherwise the characters cannot be processed properly (EN system locale does not know Chinese characters). Hope this helps. The best solution would certainly be to avoid non-ASCII

characters in file names on EN operating systems.

Best regards,
Yuki
