Entering and Displaying English and chinese

We are running Oracle 8i on a w2k server and have w2k clients
configured to enter and view English, Simplified and Traditonal
Chinese. Oracle is setup with UTF8. We atn to be able to enter
and display both english and chinese characters simultaneous in
the forms as we enter data as well as in reports. Everything is
done in Oracle forms/reports 6. I have tried various nls
settings but nothing seems to work to provide both entry and
viewing of the characters as well as providing properly
formatted reports.
Jim Liddil

I also have a customer that is having a similar problem. The
general issue is that the customer wants to use Win2000 in
English but within a Forms 6.0 application fill in certain fields
with Simplified Chinese characters. I think they had difficulty
getting it to work even if the default is all Chinese, that is
both the Windows locale default and the NLS settings. We're
mostly beyond that but the real goal is to allow the user to run
in English (but with language supplement support available for
Chinese) then when the user hits the appropriate fields in the
application he toggles to a Chinese characters to input. So we
can't seem to find the right combination of NLS settings,
patches, etc. that would support this.
At one point we apparently were able to have the application
accepting the Chinese characters but to do so meant that many of
the Oracle Forms default menu items, dialogue buttons and
message bar were displayed in Chinese.
The simplest explanation: allow to run Forms 6 app in English.
Allow storing of Chinese characters into fields at the will
of the user. Database stores characters correctly. Application
(Forms) echoes characters correctly , not ???? or boxes .
We need to have a definite answer to the customer within 2 weeks
meaning we either have a fix now for their current ISO 9000
certified application based on Forms 6.0 or we know through
testing that it absolutely will work when we rev. the application
to Forms 6i. The latter revision of their application is not due
to ship until mid-2002.
Any suggestions or referrals are appreciated.

  • Displaying English and ARABIC language on a smartform?

    Hi All,
    Hi Folks, I have an issue printing two different languages on a smartform; I should print English and One more language of ARABIC style (RIGHT TO LEFT). In Debugging mode i could see the Arabic Text exactly in the format which i have entered but when i print it takes the other way.
    For Ex: ABCD - (Fyi - this is of Arabic Language dialect)
    o/p: ( i m getting) DCBA
    i tried with Text Include n Text Element during debugging i could see the data as DCBA but when i print the system (MS Tools - Word) are recognising the Language is of Arabic and its automatically changing the cursor position to the end ((**I found this in XML Format of Smartform)). so the form is printing from the new cursor position i.e A; and its displaying the output as ABCD.
    Note: I have no problem with List, Screen Etc. except "Form".
    Please Advice me. Thanks in Advance.

    Shekher,
    Check the printer device type you are using.
    For printing the Arabic output you need the printer defined using ZARSWIN device type. Ask the Basis consultant to do the same.

    <script type="text/javascript">
    ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(AddHelpLink, "sp.js");

  • Sharing and displaying Excel and pdf documents in SAP BO Mobile

    Hello all,
    I have one quick question. Is it possible to share excel and pdf documents through SAP BO Mobile?
    I tried it uploading documents to BO Launch pad and assigning them to Mobile category. I can't see them in my ipad. Is there another way to share these kind of files through SAP Mobile in mobile devices? and how?
    Thanks.

    No that won't do it. Because my users have their own excels which are not related to BO or BW platforms. They are entering data manually to excel spreadsheets and reporting. We just want to upload them to BO platform and let them share those files with other users.
    I know I could create a webi report on top of excel, but we don't want to spend redoing the reports in excel.
    Thanks though.

  • Universal charset for english and chinese

    Hi,
    Is there any universal charset for both english and chinese? I would like my portal to display both english and chinese characters and i understood that the default iPS charset is ISO-8859-1, we can change this to any charset, but this will be a global charset value. To change this value, i know i need to change at iwtPlatform and iwtUser. Any advise on this? Would like to know is there any universal character code to display english and chinese and if there is any, what is the code? Thanks a lot.

    Evelyn,
    You should be able to use UTF-8 or BIG-5 to display both Chinese and English.
    NOTE: BIG-5 will not be able to display simplified chinese. For Simplified Chinese, you should use GB 2312-80.

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to display English and Arabic in one JTextPane? For English the orientation is left to right while it's right to left for Arabic. So the result might be like:

    I think you should be able to do it like this (very psuedo):
    set the pane type to html,
    for your text, have a String with something like:
    <html>
    <div align="left">english</div>
    <div align="right">arabic</div>
    </html>I don't know the exact html for this but something like the above.
    Then set the whole string into your pane.

  • CJ20n - No authorization to display network and activities

    Hi Gurus,
    I am facing an authorization issue with network and activities.
    When a network was called in transaction in CN23, it looks okay and displayed network and activities accurately.
    When I opened the PROJECT in CJ20N and expand it to reach that network and activity. There network and activities are apprearing in RED, means I am not authorized to view them. Where as when I opened the WBS element in CJ20n to which Network and activites are linked, there again I found everything looks Okay.
    So the problem only occurs when I am trying to expand project structure through project definition. In this case all networks and activities with in the project are appearing in Red color(no authorization).
    Does anyone has ever come across this situation? Please share your thoughts ?

    This eror is related to ACL in network profile.
    Please check that  "No ACL"  is selected in network profile configuration. If yes, you can execute transaction CNACLD- Delete Access Control List entry to see if any user id is set up for ACL for the project or network. If so, select all and delete them.
    It should work with this solution.
    Thanks

  • Cannot Input and Display Chinese Characters by using ODBC Applications

    Dear all,
    I am trying to input the Simplified Chinese Characters in the Oracle Database Ver 9.2 running on a UNIX AIX server. The client application we are using is th MS Access 2003 running on a MS Windows XP English version SP 2 without multi-language pack. MS Office 2003 is also an English version.
    Database setting is:
    NLS_CHARACTERSET=US7ASCII
    NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET=AL16UTF16
    The Oracle Client used is also ver 9.2 with the ODBC driver ver 9.2. I have tried the following NLS_LANG settings by chaging the registry without any NLS_LANG environment settings:
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16MSWIN950
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHS16GBK
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16HKSCS
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
    I have tied to load some Chinese Characters in by sqlload and by using the NLS_LANG AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16MSWIN950, AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHS16GBK and AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16HKSCS, they can be display perfectly in SQLPLUS. But when using the same NLS_LANGs and display in the ACCESS, only ???? are displayed.
    When I tried to insert Chinese in ACCESS, the character changed to ???? again. No matter what Chinese characters I inserted by MS ACCESS, the ???? code can be dump with the binary code "03, 0f".
    Are there any methods or settings I need to change to make ACCESS an application for inserting and displaying Chinese characters from the Oracle database?
    I have tried to set the Non-Unicode setting in the Windows Locale setting:
    Chinese (Taiwan) (With AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16MSWIN950),
    Chinese (Hong Kong S.A.R) (with AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16HKSCS) and
    Chinese (PRC) (with AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHS16GBK)
    when inserting the Chinese Characters by Access. But they all failed with ???? inserted in the DB.
    Please kindly advise what should be done.
    Thanks.

    Are you trying to store the character data in char/varchar2 columns?
    If that's the case then you have a problem, since a US7ASCII character set can only handle, well, ascii data.
    If you are trying to store the data in columns of nchar datatypes, then there might be a problem with literals because literals are converted to database character set first, before conversion to national (nchar) character set. Such data loss can also happen depending on how binds or oci calls are performed.
    You could use the dump() function to verify what's actually stored in a database column, without a db - client conversion happening that may distort the facts.
    Example:
    SQL> select col, dump(col, 1016) from table where some_condition;

  • Having difficulty switching between English and Chinese

    Hi!
    I have a requirement to change the front panel strings (captions) from English to Chinese, at the click of a button.
    The PC specs are: Windows 2000, MSBC enabled with an IME.  LabVIEW 7.1 (Will eventually be using LabVIEW 8.20 - does this make it any easier?)
    I have done a little research on the NI web page, and have tried the following knowledge base article:
    http://zone.ni.com/devzone/conceptd.nsf/2d17d611efb58b22862567a9006ffe76/6d94f90fc9b93aad862568a7007...
    What I need to know is what this article means by "translating the text".  This is what I've tried thus far:
    Export strings to a file.
    Edit strings in an editor that supports Chinese.
    Save file as text (should I save it as xml instead?)
    Import Strings back into LabVIEW
    All that gets displayed is "???", instead of Chinese characters.
    Any suggestions?

    "... change the front panel strings (captions) from English to Chinese, at the click of a button."
    without scripting, no can do using the article you cited.
    The solution is trivial but the implementation is not.
    You will either have to update all of the captions or hide the captions and place string indicators where the captions would have been.

    P.S. I just checked: Chinese (Simplified) and Chinese (Traditional) are both language selection options for OCR.

  • How do I get my Course Manager to display in English and not German?

    My company is registered in both Germany and United Kingdom, and conduct business mainly in English Language. I signed up for iTunesU in order to create courses to share on iTunesU on behalf of my college. However, each time I insert the link below to go to the Course Manager panel:
    coursemanager.itunes.apple.com
    the site redirectly automatically to
    itunesu.itunes.apple.com/coursemanager/de-de/
    which displays everything in German instead of in English. This has been a huge hindrance and costing me loads of time trying to figure out how to get the Course Manager platform in English. There are only very few menus in the Course Manager and there is no route to changing the language. I would appreciate any assistance with this.
