How to import a csv with French accents in it ?

Hello to all,
It's been a while that everytime I import a participant csv in Adobe Connect, if I have French accents (example : é, è, ô...), the name imported with the accents comes out with white on black questions marks at the place of the original accentuated letter.
I have tried different methods to conturn this : using Notepad++ with UTF8 with or without BOM, OEM863 (French)... Nothing seems to do the trick.
Would anyone know how to do this in a import without having to go all through the procedure of either creating my participants manually or changing manually the names after the import, please ?
Thank you very much for your help !
Abigail

I am working on this same issue and doing some small tests. I have saves my file as Unicode text (txt) and that seems to solve the issue with accents not saving. I will need to try larger files.

ITunesU - Tags name with french accents (é,è,à,ê,...)

Every time I try to upload files in iTunesU with french accent in the tag, I found after the upload some characters I never write in the tags.
For example, if the name of the artist is «Hélène David» after the upload the name in tags is «Hélène DavidTS». I do not understand why the letters «TS» appear in the name.
Samething happen if I write in the tag Name «L'intégrité à l'Université de Montréal : pour une vraie réussite» after the upload the new name is «L'intégrité à l'Université de Montréal : pour une vraie réussiteTALB». Same problem with the the name of the album. I wrote «Les grandes conférences du CEFES» and this text appear in the tag «Les grandes conférences du CEFEST».
How to fix this problem ?

Problem loading Image data with French accent in file name

We have a very complex commercial application that has been working perfectly in English for over a year. We have now localized it to French and Spanish, and discovered a serious show-stopping problem. We need help fast, with the scheduled release being less than 2 weeks away...!
We iterate over a folder to find all the images in it, then display those in a user window. The code for loading the images is:
            for each (var name:String in filenames){
                var image:SmoothImageTransformable = new SmoothImageTransformable();
                var imagePath:String = dir + "/" + name;
                image.source = imagePath;
                trace("Adding Item to picture carousel with url " + image.source);
                image.data = {directory:dir, filename:name};
                image.isDragEnabled = true;
                image.setStyle("horizontalCenter", 0);
                image.setStyle("verticalCenter", 0);
                _images.push(image);
Our SmoothImageTransformable class is an internal class that inherits from Image. This all works fine for image names like 'myFavoritePhoto', 'test', 'photo346', etc. However, it fails to load the data if the file name is something like 'caméra' Any name with a UTF-8 character causes the data load to fail.
To be sure we weren't doing a load somewhere else in the code that I had overlooked, I added a "image.autoLoad = false' line in there. That did exactly as expected -- all image squares then show a grey blank, with no image shown. Removing that line (reverting to the original code, as shown above) causes all the images to work perfectly, except for those with French accent characters like the é.
HELP! Is this a known bug? Is there some additional setting I need to make it understand the extended character set? I can't find any mention about this at all in the documentation.

@markerline:
We have a fix! Almost... I don't understand one aspect of what I am seeing though.
We have one test file named "camèra.jpg" that is an example of what I am unable to load into an Image. I decided to examine the character codes at each letter, and this is what Flex has as the string:
name = cam?ra.jpg
   [0] = c; 0x99
   [1] = a; 0x97
   [2] = m; 0x109
   [3] = ?; 0x232
   [4] = r; 0x114
   [5] = a; 0x97
   [6] = .; 0x46
   [7] = j; 0x106
   [8] = p; 0x112
   [9] = g; 0x103
Note that the è prints as gibberish in the trace statement, and shows a numeric encoding of 0x232. According to
     http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/web2/action/appb_01.htm
The unicode equivalent of Latin1 for è is 0xE8, which is equivalent to 0x232. That implies that the string is already Latin1, which I would think would mean that Windoze would recognize the file name and open it properly -- but it does not.
I then tried taking the "camèra.jpg" string, pasting it into NotePad++ in a UTF8 document, then telling NotePad++ to display as ASCII. The result is "camÃ¨ra". I then tried just forcing the file name within Flex to this new mangled string. The result then is:
MAGIC name = camèra
   [0] = c; 0x99
   [1] = a; 0x97
   [2] = m; 0x109
   [3] = ?; 0x195
   [4] = ?; 0x168
   [5] = r; 0x114
   [6] = a; 0x97
   [7] = .; 0x46
   [8] = j; 0x106
   [9] = p; 0x112
[10] = g; 0x103
Note this time the trace statement looks proper. More important, the IMAGE DOES LOAD! (Our display of the name to the user now looks like crap, but that just means I need to modify our class to have a separate 'name' property, rather than extracting it from the 'image.source')
So... my remaining question -- what encoding did I just do through that NotePad++ incantation? That site I quoted above said that it was already Latin1, which is what I thought I was trying to get to. I clearly need to write a method to map from incoming (UTF8 I thought, but maybe Latin1?) to Windows file system (Latin1 I thought, but maybe ASCII).
In other words, I am not sure what charcter set to come from or go to... It turns out the code was already in the character set I had been trying to go to (which is why it wasn't working) and the set I seem to need to go to is not the one I thought...

Iweb with french accents.

Hi all, I'm using the great IWeb in french... I have found that when i create a new page with french accents IWEB creates a stange file name , but when this new web page have no french accents the name becomes ok. My Os X 10.4.8 is in french and my Iweb is in french to. By the way i'm not from France . I am from Québec Canada. I say that because we do not use the same keyboard configuration nor the same french language.
The question is , Is this phenomenone normal or is there something i can do to correct it.
My version of IWEB is 1.1.2 wish, i think, is the latest version of the product.
Thank in advance.
Mac Book Mac OS X (10.4.8) processor 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo

It's a known issue. Anytime you use characters outside the plain alphanumeric characters, iWeb will generate a more complex address and corresponding file/folder names. It may be as simple as replacing the characters with their hex/ascii codes or you may get a string of random characters.
My iWeb 2.0 wish is that we are allowed to make pagenames that are separate from the URLs. That would do away with some of the constraints like you describe in naming your page correctly and still having valid and legal URLs.

How to import a csv file without "+" being added to numbers?

I'm trying to import a csv file from my bank. Numbers automatically adds a "+" and "-" sign before all numbers. Numbers won't add the numbers with a + sign. How can I easily remove the + sign? It seems the delimiter in the csv file may be ", rather than , Thanks.

Wayne,
I don't believe that the plus sign came from Numbers. Except for a purposful application of a Custom Format, Numbers isn't going to add the plue sign. The minus sign is another issue. It's a perfectly acceptable part of the value and shouldn't cause a problem.
If the plus sign came from the CSV file, which you seem to imply isn't the case, you would have to strip it out before submitting to Numbers.

How to import an .csv file into the database?

and can we code the program in JSP to import the.csv file into the database.

It is better to use Java class to read the CSV file and store the contents in the database.
You can use JSP to upload the CSV file to the server if you want, but don't use it to perform database operations.
JSPs are good for displaying information on the front-end, and for displaying HTML forms, there are other technologies more suitable for the middle layer, back end and the database layer.
So break you application into
1) Front end - JSPs to display input html forms and to display data retrieved from the database.
2) Middle layer - Servlets and JavaBeans to interact with JSPs. The code that reads the CSV file to parse it's contents should be a Java Class in the middle layer. It makes use of Java File I/O
3) Database layer - Connects to the database using JDBC (Java Database Connectivity), and then writes to the database with SQL insert statements.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Keeping the above concepts in mind, first build a simple JSP and get it to work,
then research on Google , for Java File I/O , discover how to read a file,
Then search on how to readh a CSV file using Java.
After researching you should be able to read the CSV file line by line and store each line inside a Collection.
Then research on Google, on how to write to the database using JDBC
Write a simple program that inserts something to a dummy table in the database.
Then, read the data stored in the Collection, and write insert statements for each records in the collection.

Problem with French accents

Hi,
I'm using B2B to transform HL7 v2.x messages from text to xml. The messages include many French accents and are misinterpreted by B2B. Is there a way to set the character set in an HL7 over MLLP setup?

Thanks Ramesh,
There is no BPEL involved at this point. Did you mean the xsd file generated by EDIfecs? It does actually contain the UTF-8 encoding. As for the ecs file, I would not know how to ensure the encoding:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsd:schema xmlns="urn:oracle:integration:b2b:361B7F53AD2940EB92FB9BBD2424389B" targetNamespace="urn:oracle:integration:b2b:361B7F53AD2940EB92FB9BBD2424389B" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" version="1.0" elementFormDefault="qualified">

Help with French Accent Characters Corrupted

Hi, All.
I am developing a Flex Front end connect with Java back-end.
The back-end sends data retrieved from XML file to the Flex
front-end; displays it in an TextArea, and allow user to change.
After user changes the data, hit "Save" button, then Flex sends the
data to the back-end.
I check with the back-end, make sure the data was correct
when sending out to Flex, and the French accented characters gets
corrupted when sending back from Flex. However, in Flex side, this
change cannot be awared. (i.e. The French accents characters
display correctly in Flex, but sending wrong character back). I'm
guessing that might be something related to character sets.
However, I cannot find anywhere to set character sets in
HTTPService. Anybody has idea?

How to import a album with multiple artists in the one album?

How do I import a album with multiple artists as the one album. Everytime I try to do this it does not collate it into one album, the other artists come up seperatley, also if this is possible can you set so that it works automatically everytime?
Hope someone can help.
Cheers,

Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

How to import a table with renamed name

If I want to import a table from a DMP on UNIX towards my user where I already have a new version but I don't want to drop this new version 'cause I have only to move some records from one to the other, is there an import option for importing the table with another name? I mean I want to import on the same user, where there already exists the table MYTABLE, an old version of MYTABLE by impoting it with the new name MYTABLE_OLD, so afterwards I can update MYTABLE with some of old records of its old versione MYTABLE_OLD. Is it possible?

You cannot directly do this.
You can import the Table into a different schema and then rename the table.
export and import back into the required schema.

How to import Spacial Data with mapviewer into Database?

I have deployed mapviewer10133wls with oc4j and able to see mapviewer home page but don't know how to get started with mapviewer like what configuration it needed and how to import sapcial data into Database with mapviewer. please help with reply.
Thanks,

If its the Oracle Spatial option you're after, its not included in XE http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/license.102/b25456/toc.htm#BABJIJCJ
For GIS data, I'll be no help at all someone else here may have experience with it. If its something that can fit into RDBMS tables there is probably a way to do it without Spatial, but that's just a guess :(

Targa sequence, how to import it only with Final Cut

Anyone knows how to import a targa sequence, without first making it a quicktime movie with QTPP(pro)?
I know the method of the 1 frame duration of a still, I want the final cut to recognize the targa sequence as a SEQUENCE...
Is that too much too ask from such an editing platform like Final Cut? I hope NOT

do not have QTPP
I read about that way
any way to do it without QTPP?
normal QT does not allow me to export in alpha channel...as my graphics are supposed to play on top of shots not on their own...
I'm desperate, have to deliver the project 2 days from now and I'm not good in compromising with anything at all...
thanks you in advance...

How to import a csv file and read in sap ui5?

Hi,
I want to import a file and read it contents to bind it to table.How to do it?
Thanks in advance.

I tried to do this all from within the application but found it easier to just start with a JSON file. But, you can use a JS library to convert your CSV into JSON from within the application like this one:
archan937/csonv.js · GitHub
I just converted my CSV to JSON. Once you have that, all you need to do is instantiate a model for it and bind to table.
onInit: function () {
    var oModel = new sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel("PATH TO YOUR JSON FILE");
    this.getView().setModel(oModel);
<Table id="idProductsTable"
    inset="false"
    items="{
      path: '/ProductCollection',
      sorter: {
        path: 'Name'
    }">
The UI5 demo kit is a good resource. I believe it'll be same/similar for SAPUI5:
OpenUI5 SDK - Demo Kit
See here for example of defining your model and binding to a table:
