IWorks in English on non-English OS

I downloaded the iWorks trial and I've ordered it from the store.
I would like it in English despite the fact that my OS is in French.
Is there some way to do this or will iWorks insist on remaining in the language of the OS ?

Tom,
Thank you very much
You just taught me something very useful in general, not just for iworks.

  • Error writing file name which contain both English and non-English name

    Hello
    I have this simple vbscript code which suppose to write all file names in some directory to a text file
    Dim FSO
    Dim FileDirectory
    FileDirectory = "C:\temp"
    Dim FileList
    FileList = "list.txt"

    for each file in FileDirectory.files
    Fname = file.name
    objFile.Write( ChrW(34) & Fname & ChrW(34) & vbCrLf)
    objFile.Write( ChrW(34) & FileDirectory & "\" & Fname & ChrW(34) & vbCrLf)
    Next
    objFile.Close
    Everything goes fine while file names are in English but when some file name is non English or both  English with non English name (right to left languages) an error raised, so how to deal with this writing issue without changing the file name

    I tested you code but it didn't worked for me (works fine for English file names but doesn't work with right to left language )

  • Spool non english character names to a file

    Hi There,
    We have a table which has around a million rows. We just need to select two columns(out of which one is a name field with english and non english names) and spool the data to a file. The problem is that through sqldeveloper, if I choose csv or dsv option, the non english names, like chines charaters etc show up as question marks. Is there a better way or format to do this. I tries xls. But although it goes through successfully, when I open the excel file, it has nothing. I was able to do it for around 200000 rows in excel.
    Any suggesstions?
    Thanks,

    Edited by: ryansun on Jun 23, 2012 4:24 AMwhen dealing with non-ASCII characters, two different issues can exist,
    1) data storage - incorrect byte value is stored
    2) data presentation - incorrect character is displayed.
    Can the utility utilized to view the *CSV file actually display the non-ASCII value properly?
    can you inspect the *CSV file using an hexadecimal editor? what do you see inside the file?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

  • Prevent Non-English Characters on JSP forms

    I was hoping to get any programming tips/ideas to prevent users from entering non-english text on web-forms.
    Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    I have a jsp page something like:
    <tr>
    <td colspan=2> </td>
    <td colspan=2>
    <textarea name="title" cols="<%=cols%>" rows="3" wrap><%= form.getTitle()%></textarea>
    </td>
    </tr>
    When the user submits the page, I do the form validation in the java formhandler. I was hoping that I could somehow compare the ascii codes of the character to ensure user is entering only english characters.
    The following is the code, I have written in java the form-handler
    for (int i =0 ; i < title.length() ; i++) {
         char c = title.charAt(i);
         System.out.println("c = " + c + ", ascii = " +(int)'c');
         if (int(c) > 127) {
              setErrorMessage(ID.QUESTION.TITLE, "Non-English characters are not allowed. Please enter the required information only in Enlgish.");     
    But for some reason which I am not able to debug, is that no matter what character I enter english or non-english its ascii equivalent i.e. the int(c) value getting printed out is always 99. Moreover even if I enter a non-english character, in the system.out it is printing its english equivalent...if that makes any sense...
    I hope I was able to explain my problem...Any help/feedback would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Customer conversion for non-english language

    Hi:
    We have a requirement to convert customer data from lagacy system to Oracle EBS supporting English and Non-English languages. Our conversion programs for english is working fine but we are not sure about the approach for other language converions. Can anyboody share the knowledge if faced similar requirements?
    Thanks /Santanu

    I believe your conversion programs should work regardless of the language the data is stored in, as long as the database and Apps use UTF8 characterset. To the code, data is data, whether it is in English or in another language. Your approach should be to test your conversion programs in test instances and tweak them as necessary. Are there specific concerns you have with using data in other languages ?

  • Non-English characters

    Hello, I have read several times that since Java uses Unicode, it solves the problems of non-English characters automatically or something like that.
    But my app is not working as expected. Would someone help please?
    I have a client/server combo written in Java. The server can send messages in English or Japanese. The Japanese messages are hard-coded as String literals in the server source code. On the client side, they are displayed on a JEditorPane. But the Japanese characters are all garbled. The OS on the server side and client side are, of course, different.
    My supposition, which is obviously wrong as it is not working, is that since both ends of communication are Java app, I need not worry about any encoding conversions for String literals.
    Suggest me what is wrong here?

    How is the required encoding/decoding supposed to be done?
    When I didn't worry about non-English characters, I did the following, which WORKED.
    // SENDER side
    Socket socket ;
    PrintWriter     out = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(),true);
    String outMessage = "my message";
    out.println(outMessage);//RECEIVER
    Socket socket ;
    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
    String inMessage =  in.readLine();When non-English characters are involved, I did the following, which DID NOT WORK. Please someone correct me.
    // SENDER side
    Socket socket ;
    PrintWriter     out = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(),true);
    String outMessage = "my message";
    String utfString = new String(outMessage.getBytes(),"UTF-8");
    out.println(utfString);//RECEIVER
    Socket socket ;
    InputStreamReader ins = new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream(),"UTF-8");
    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(ins);
    String inMessage =  in.readLine();The received message is still garbled.

  • Non-english character display as square box

    Hi all,
    I'm not very sure if this question should be asked here or in the JRE board, thus I'm trying here also
    I have been trying an opensourced application called Alliancep2p (could be obtained from www.alliancep2p.com) using JRE 1.6 on an English Windows XP Pro machine.
    The problem:
    all chinese input are displayed as "square box". It looks like the programme "gets" the correct character, only that everything is displayed as "square box".
    It looks like a font issue, though I'm not that sure. Is there anyway the default fonts could be changed, or to get the characters correctly displayed?
    Note: I have east asian fonts installed, and the Java config panel can display chinese or other non-english characters correctly.
    I tried the same application under GNU/Linux (locale is UTF-8) and chinese input/display correctly without any problem at all. Does it mean that it is not the problem of the application, or?
    The original question in the JRE board:
    http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5265369&tstart=0
    Thanks for all the input.

    I'm not really sure if it's a problem of the application or not. But the fact that it works perfectly under Linux makes me think maybe it's not the problem of the program, and actually their developers said that unicode is being used all over the program and seems like they're not CJK users also.
    I'm not a java guru so I can't really tell from the source if there's anything wrong.

  • Non English characters in FTP transport

    Hi gurus,
    I have this kind of problem: I need to create text file from internal table (table of 10000 charactes lines) , the file should be created in given ftp server (currently using FM FTP_R3_TO_SERVER).
    But, and here is the problem, the text file contains some non English character (Czech to be specific) and after the file is created in ftp server the non English character are replaced by #, characters are fine in the table, even after creating the file on local system everything is fine.
    I checked rfc connections, their are Unicode, file is sending in bin mode of ftp (ascii mode had no change, only acsii mode cuts the line to 256 character which is not enough) and parameter of fm FTP_R3_TO_SERVER character_mode is checked.
    I will appreciate any help or "kick" in right direction.
    Thanks
    Martin

    Hi Salehashaikh,
    I'm not using the FM 'FTP_R3_TO_SERVER' any more to transfer the internal table to ftp, so I do not have the code.  Sorry,
    but i will try to answer the question.
    when you are using function module  'FTP_R3_TO_SERVER' to transfer internal data to ftp the parameter fname should be the name or path of the file you are creating. If you only put file name there for example:
         CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_R3_TO_SERVER'
           EXPORTING
           handle = w_hdl
           fname = 'test_file.txt'
         character_mode = 'X'
    this will create file test_file.txt in root directory on ftp.
    You could also put there whole path on the ftp for example
          fname = '/directory/test_file.txt'
    Other approach will be to change to the directory with function module 'FTP_COMMAND' with parameter command set to cd /directory/ code will look like this:
    data: lv_command type string,
             lv_path type string.
    constants: lc_change_dir type string value 'cd'.
    *body of the program including calls of FM to connect to ftp
    concatenate lc_change_dir lv_path into lv_command sepparated by space.
    CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_COMMAND'               "this FM will execute any ftp command on ftp server
      EXPORTING
       HANDLE                = lv_handle
        COMMAND               = lv_command
      TABLES
        DATA                  = lt_result
    CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_R3_TO_SERVER'
           EXPORTING
           handle = w_hdl
           fname = 'test_file.txt'
          character_mode = 'X'.
    this "code" will create file test_file.txt in the ftp server on given directory from internal table passed to fm ftp_r3_to_server.
    list of ftp commands could be found http://www.cs.colostate.edu/helpdocs/ftp.html
    good explanation of ftp is here http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/ABAPsolutiontoimplementFTP+transactions
    I hope this is understandable and helps to solve your problem

  • Non english characters in DN cannot be retrieved

    We are using Netscape directory server 4, protocal V3. We have a problem related to non-english characters appearing in RDN.
    We publish to Ldap entries using the values from database. For example, we have pubulished an entry to Ldap, based on DB values, the entry should have a DN like: ou=Liege BELGIUM ... LGG1a, <other components of DN>. However, when we call netscape search API (search against uid attribute which does not have non-english characters), the search return the entry, but when further call getDN() method on the returned Ldap Entry, it only returns Li, instead of the complete DN value.
    It seems the entry is corrupted in Ldap. I wanted to delete the corrupted entry and re create new one to test. I tried many ways, but none of them worked, I think it is because DN is corrupted, there is no key value to identify the Ldap entry for any operation(modify, delete).
    You help and insights are much appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Han Shen

    LDAP uses the UTF8 encoding. You must store data in the directory using the UTF8 encoding. This includes DN values. This also means that if you want to be able to view the values in your native character set and font, you must use an application that can convert the UTF8 LDAP data back to the native character encoding. The directory console by default should work for LATIN-1 (ISO 8859) languages if the LOCALE is set correctly.

  • Non English characters in BIP email

    Hi, my report contains Japanese characters, when I view the output in HTML format. It is displayed properly. But when I click on send button , enter email parameters like to, cc, bcc, subject , etc and send it, in the mail I receive, the japanese characters are not getting displayed properly. The same problem occurs for spanish and portugese texts-in general to all non english characters. I am using Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher Release 10.1.3.4. If someone has faced a similar issue, kindly help. Thanks in advance

    Suggestions
    1) Try with NLS_LANG as
    SWEDISH_SWEDEN.WE8DEC
    2) Make a paramform and enter via paramform (unencoded)
    (This is just for testing purpose)
    3) Change machine locale to swedish and try
    4) Which reports version is this ?

  • "Program files" directory problem during Microsoft Office Customization Installer in non-English versions of Windows

    We have a document-level customization solution for Word and are experiencing problems during deployment in an environment running on terminal services. The OS (Windows 2012) is English and Word (2013) is non-English (German). 
    Installation is done into the "Program Files" folder correctly. But when trying to start a word document linked to the specific template. The "Microsoft Office Customization Installer" pops up with the error.
    "There was an error during installation"
    From: file:///C:/Programme/[CompanyName]/[Productname]/[Productname].vsto
    Downloading file:///c:/Programme/[CompanyName]/[Productname]/[Productname].vsto did not succeed.
    Exception: ....
    System.Deployment.Application.DeploymentDonwloadException: Download file:///C:/Programme/[Companyname]/Productname]/[Productname].vsto did not suceed. ---> System.Net.WebException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Programme\[Companyname]\[Productname]\[Productname].vsto'.
    ---> System.Net.WebException: ...... ---> System.IO.DirectoyNotFoundException......
    The problem seems to be that the installer is looking for C:\PROGRAMME instead of C:\PROGRAM FILES. C:\PROGAMME is the German localized name of PROGRAM FILES (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_Files).
    The installer installs the solution correctly deployed into c:\program files, but when the later a user tries to start it and the Microsoft Office Customization Installer is called, it tries to access the non-existing "c:\programme" folder. This
    doesn't exist, because Windows is English.
    Is there any thing related to deploying solutions on a platform which has different languages (mixing/matching of OS language and Office language?)
    Thank you for your help

    Hello,
    1. First, I would confirm with you whether you dealt with the localization for your document-level add-in?
    2. Did you use this way to define the Create a class that defines the post-deployment action part of Put the document of a solution
    onto the end user's computer (document-level customizations only) and did you get the path with Environment.SpecialFolder enum?
    To handle this, I would recommend you consider using Environment.SpecialFolder to set that property.

  • Oracle 10g - Defining the column name in Non English

    Hi Experts,
    I have an exisitng application which is developed on Windows using ASP Technology and uses Oracle 10g 10.1.0.2.0.
    The application is supported with an instance of Data Base within which multiple tablespaces are created for different clients. The application is developed in such a way that some of the tables arecreated dynamically and the columns are named using the data entered through the UI.
    This application needs to be globalized now. The problem is, the column name entered through the UI can be in any language based on the client's settings and those values in turn will be used for naming the columns in the tables.
    1) Can I have the column names to be named using non english characters in Oracle 10g DB? If so,
    1.1) what should I do to configure the exisiting Oracle instance to support it?
    1.2) To what level is that configuration possible, is it per DB instance level (or) can it be done at Tablespace level. I would like to configure each tablespace to host tables with columns defined with different languages, say for example, tablespace 1 will have tables with Japaenese column names and tablespace 2 will have tables with German column names?
    2) What should I do to make my entire DB to support unicode data i.e., to accept any language strings. Currently all strings are declared as VarChar2, should I change all VarChar2 to NVarChar2 (or) is there a way to retain the VarChar2 as is and make some database wide setting?
    Please note that I do not have an option of retaining the column in English as per the Business Requirement.
    Envionment:
    OS - Windows 2003 32 bit
    Oracle 10g 10.1.0.2.0
    UI forms in ASP
    TIA,
    Prem

  • English reviews in non English app stores

    In the past it was possible to see the English / American reviews in non-English app stores. It would be more than nice to get that ability back. In small countries there are often not that many reviews and also English speaking people in non-English countries should be able to read reviews.

    Are you referring to the Customer Reviews? iTunes doesn't distinguish which language is used by the customer in writing the review so it can't filter out those you don't want to see. In fact someone could write one review and use many languages in it, but it seems those that speak German are the most vocal in the Swiss store.
    This is also a user forum. Responses are from other users of Apple products. It is mainly for other users helping you with a problem that they can fix. If you want to give feedback to Apple select Provide iTunes Feedback from the iTunes menu from within the iTunes application.
