     Replace non-standard characters with standard characters
   Functionality
     SCP_REPLACE_STRANGE_CHARS processes a text so that it only contains
     simple characters. Special characters and national characters are
     replaced in such a way that the text remains reasonably legible.
     The character set 1146 is used by default. In this case the following
     replacements are made, for example:
      Æ ==> AE        (AE)
      Â ==> A         (Acircumflex)
      Ä ==> Ae        (Adieresis)
      £ ==> L         (sterling)
     Note that the new text can be longer than the old.
So i dont think it ll be useful for eliminating the sp. chars.
U have to check each and every alphabet with std 26 alphabets
Thanks & Regards

  • How to retrieve non-english characters from a query

    Hello,
    My apologies if this post is not in its proper place, but I was a bit confused where to add it.
    I'm running a query using SQL Developer on a table which contains several companies names from many different countries, and one of the checks I need to make to ensure data consistency is to search for all rows which the name of company contains special or non-english characters (like ç, ã, ä as example).
    I don't know what can I use to do this. I tried to collate using NLS_SORT but it didn't work.
    Is there someway to select only the rows that contain these special or non-english characters, excluding from the results the rows that only have english characters? Please have in mind that we have many languages in this table.
    The field I would like to make the conditions on is VARCHAR2.
    Please let me know if there is any extra information I should provide you so that you can help me.
    Thank you in advance for the help.

    Luís

  • Parsing Non English characters from OPEN DATASET

    Hi Team,
    I'm try to download the .txt file using the OPEN DATASET in the windows environment from application server, system language is set up for English.
    The problem is, in the .txt file some times I will be getting the non-English characters (Spanish). When I try to download the data into SAP it's not downloading properly eg: ñ when it downloaded into sap it took something like A+_.
    My goal is I need to download the Spanish characters properly into sap.
    Please advice how to solve this problem.
    Thanks,
    Selvaraj

    Hi Selvaraj!
    I haven't checked the situation for 4.5B, nor can I predict exact behavior, but you can give following statement a try:
    SET LOCALE LANGUAGE lg.
    This should even change content of sy-lange for whole role area (internal session), so change the value back afterwards.

  • Formula to show non english characters from clob in crystal report

    Hi
    I am using the database Oracle 11g with a field clob in one of the table that i want to show in the crystal report
    But the problem is when i put the clob field in crystal report it is outputting the results perfectly for English characters but not for the Arabic ones and returning the string like (¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿)
    so is there any way to show the arabic (non english) characters perfectly on crystal report with clob field

    Hi Azeem,
    Make sure the arabic font should install in your system.
    Try this:
    Create a text field in your Crystal Report (a label).
    Place Arabic characters into that field (just by typing them into it on the report definition).
    Run the report. If they display correctly then its probably not Crystal, but rather would point to an issue in the data retrieval and supply to Crystal via your dataset (or whatever datasource you are using).
    If they don't display - then its definitely Crystal.

    Fonts are defined in the template you use to generate the pdf. Your application add the data and both is processed yb the FOP processor. Now there are two possible causes of the '???' :
    1. the data you sent to the template contains the '???' already
    2. the template can't digest the data (the special characters) and puts '???' in the pdf.
    Before going on you have to find out which one is your problem. The 2nd is the problem you better ask this in a FOP forum as you have to solve it by changing the template.

  • Removing non english characters from my string input source

    Guys,
    I have problem where I need to remove all non english (Latin) characters from a string, what should be the right API to do this?
    One I'm using right now is:
    s.replaceAll("[^\\x00-\\x7F]", "");//s is a string having chinese characters.
    I'm looking for a standard Solution for such problems, where we deal with multiple lingual characters.
    TIA

    I have a string which has Chinese as well as Japanese characters, and I only want to remove only Chinese characters.
    What's the best way to go about it?Oh, I see!
    Well, the problem here is that Strings don't have any information on the language. What you can get out of a String (provided you have the necessary data from the Unicode standard) is the script that is used.
    A script can be used for multiple languages (for example English and German use mostly the same script, even if there are a few characters that are only used in German).
    A language can use multiple scripts (for example Japanese uses Kanji, Hiragana and Katakana).
    And if I remember correctly, then Japanese and Chinese texts share some characters on the Unicode plane (I might be wrong, 'though, since I speak/write neither of those languages).
    These two facts make these kinds of detections hard to do. In some cases they are easy (separating latin-script texts from anything else) in others it may be much tougher or even impossible (Chinese/Japanese).

  • Download non-english updates from Windows Update Catalog

    Hi, I would like to integrate all updates to install image. However, I must select all language of each updates on Windows Updates Catalog each by each. Any idea to download all updates with differance language as easier?
    thanks

    Hi,
    I'm afraid that it is inevitable and you have to tick "Select all" for each update if you want to download all language of Updates. Why do you want to integrate all language updates into an image? if you need additional language user
    interface, then you just need language pack added to your image.

  • Removing non-english characters

    Hi,
    I'm trying to define a regular expression that helps me to replace non-english characters from a string.
    For example:

    Could any one give me some hints?

    You can use the convert function:

  • External Tables & Non English Characters

    Hi
    I am new to external tables, i wanted to know what i need to do to upload the data which is of non-English characters,
    Example
    i need to upload the data where the single file will have data for more than one non-english characters.
    1. English
    2. Chinese
    3. Korean
    let me know if any other alternative exists for the same.
    Regards
    Yram

    Hi,
    a good reference for External Tables is the manual: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/part_et.htm
    If they are in one file, you can upload them all at once. Important will be how the data is stored in the file (UTF-8, UTF-16). This information you should set in the external table by using the CHARACTERSET clause, see the manual.
    Your database also needs to support these characters!

  • Non English Characters do not appear as is while downloading in CSV

    Hi All,
    My report output has some non english characters. Downloading the output in CSV the non english characters dont show as is, rather appear as *???*
    I am using classic Report Template.
    How to overcome this?
    Should I create a custom Report Template?
    If Yes, then how to incorporate the custom template
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    You can create a custom template using BI Publisher + RTF Template.
    There you can set the font, graphs, ...
    But you need commercial version of Oracle BI.

  • VBA does not recognize non-English characters

    Hello guys,
    I have a new laptop with Windows 8.1 bought in the USA and I'm having a difficulties with Excel VBA (Office 365 University-64x bought in the Czech Republic - Central Europe). The VBA does not recognize non-English characters (particularly "ř" and
    "ů") which causes me problem when running some codes that I wrote earlier on my previous laptop (Windows 7, bought in the Czech Republic with the same Office). 
    The problem with non-English characters has occurred only in VBA so far, otherwise I can use these characters normally in Excel cells, Word... I tried to install both English and Czech version of the Office with no change, I also installed Czech proofreading
    tools and set everything to Czech in the Office. The location and language preferences in the Windows are also set up to Czech. And it is not a problem of a font. I also mentioned that when I tried to look up these characters, using Ctrl+F, it changes
    original ř to r after a search and again this is only an issue of the VBA.   
    Thank you very much for any help.

  • Support issue for non-English characters (in html forms)

    Hi group!
    I just want to post an issue here and see if anyone else has the same problem. First off, Im running Windows XP MCE but the French version (not the english version). This may help find out where the problem really is.
    Second, I know a bit of html and such, and I'm referring to HTML Character entities for this thread, there's a quite complete list here for reference: http://www.faqs.org/docs/htmltut/characterentitiesfamsupp69.html
    I noticed that some, not all, non-English characters written in a textarea (which is, basically, a multi-lined input box) doesnt pass well or at all to the server when sending the form from Safari. Most of the time, the content of the text area is reduced to the beginning and ends where the first accentued character is met.
    The most used French accents (é, à) are usually well interpreted (but may, once in a while, produce that bug too) by safari, but ô and î doesnt do that well.
    Oddly, this bug doesnt happen all the time and doesnt "crash" in the same manner everytime.
    So I started a thread just to see if there's anyone else having issues with any non-english characters mostly in forms. Probably flash/shockwave does work, but I'm not sure- I have not tested yet.
    Acer Aspire 5044   Windows XP   Turion 1.8GHz, 1Gb SDRam, ATI 200M xpress

    Yes, it is a known issue. I also noticed that it sometimes works, but most of the time it does not. It will hopefully be solved in the future. According to http://www.apple.com/safari/download/ changes that will come include:
    # Support for International users
    # International text input methods
    # Advanced text (contextual forms, international scripts)
