Junk characters in ldt file

Hi Experts,
Am a newbie to oracle apps.
Iam using 'messages' to store and display arabic characters in xml report and it is working fine . While migrating the report form one instance to another instance by downloading ldt file, the arabic characters are displaying as junk characters in the ldt file.
Any pointers to resolve this issue will be helpful.
Thanks,
Santhosh

I am using Windows 7 and used notepad to view the ldt file.
The arabic characters are converted to some other format like junk.
I tried uploading the ldt file in the same instance.
After uploading the ldt file in the same instance,the the arabic characters are displaying as junk characters in front end while checking.
Are the arab characters are converted to some other format in ldt file?
i didnt tried uploading the ldt file in someother different instance to check for the correctness of arab characters in front end.Set NLS_LANG as suggested in my previous reply before you download the data and it should be in Arabic (assuming your database/application characterset support Arabic language and your client can read Arabic characters) -- FNDLOAD problem with Arabic font
Thanks,
Hussein

Junk characters in fmt file after converting fmb to fmt

Hi,
I have a very big form (in forms 6i). I want to search for a specific table and that table has been used in many pl/sql scripts and triggers. I converted that fmb to fmt thru forms builder using Administration - convert.
Now when I open that fmt in wordpad, I see all the scripts in junk characters.
Any advise how I can get a good fmt file.
Pls suggest soon.
Thanks

Hi ,
What happens when you try to change the fonts in the wordpad...?????
Try , as a second option , to convert your fmb file to .xml file using the frmf2xml [options] file1 [file2...] format....

Hi Experts,
I am using GUI_DOWNLOAD to download a file on my local server, In debugging the file seems to be having perfect data but once the file gets

Hi Experts,
I am facing problem while downloading the DME file. My file contains russian characters but downloaded file showing junk characters.
I have already set codepage for russia in my profile as 1500. I have also installed russian language in my system. Also i am logged in SAP in RU language and set the codepage as CYRILIC(ISO) and language as russian.
Please help me on this. I have also searched in forum but could not get proper answer.

Hi,
there's no direct support for the format triggers out of Oracle Reports. Therefore they are mentioned in the log file and in the created layout after conversion the objects with format triggers are colored red to show, that there you had to do some additional work.
Currently you had to built the logic of format triggers in BI Publisher new. Hve a look in the User Guide, there are some examples for if or choose statements.

Junk characters in data transfer Program

Hello ABAP gurus,
i am facing the problem in an custmom made ABAP Interface program. the program has an option of downloading the files in local system(Windows system) and in Unix system (AL11). when i dwnload the files locally and feed that file to a CRM system, the CRM processes the file correctly but in case if we schedule a job then the CRM reads the file from Unix system and generates an error showing the junk characters for the special european characters. please request you guys to help me in this regard.

Hi,
When you download the file locally are able to see the junk character in the file.
Logon on to the unix system and check the file content there and if any junk characters are there, usually when we upload the file then you will have those junk character being populated at the end of the record, open the file in unix and then remove those characters and reprocess that again, it will get through.
Thanks,
Mahesh.

Report displaying junk characters or Greek or some other language

Hi All,
I have one Custom report in PDF. It is a simple tabular report. When I run this report from Report Builder, it runs fine but when I register it in Oracle Apps and run it from there, it displays all the characters in Greek or some other language or junk characters. Sometimes it works if I change font. But its a trial and error. I dont understand why is it happening. This has happened with one of my other reports too. It worked when I changed the font and its size. This time it didnt work. Any clue how can I fix this issue?
Any lead will be appreciated.
Thanks,
CAH
Edited by: user638181 on Sep 3, 2009 7:05 AM

Hi Hussein,
We have similiar issue with our custom PDF reports. We are in the process of upgrading from 11.5.9 to R12.
All these reports work fine in 11.5.9.
Following are the details of our R12 environment:
1) What is the application release? Application release is 12.1.1
2) What is application/database characterset? Database - 11.1.0.7.0 and characterset is UTF8.
3) Is this a text or bitmap report? What is the report language? - It is a text report and Language is English
4) Do you use PASTA for printing? - Yes we do
5) Do you get the correct printout if you print the concurrent request output file from the OS? - If I run the report from report builder directly, Yes. If from Oracle Apps, no.
6) Expected output: "Days in Queue"
Actual Output: when I copy and paste the output here it is showing correct. But on the report it is showing
something like ∆Ωµ.....
7) If I try changing the font, it works
8) A different text field on the same report with the same font shows good.
I would appreciate your help on this one.
Thanks
Vishnu

[4.0] Junk characters in TNS list

Hi All,
first of all let me thank all the developers that worked on SQL Developer (especially the fourth version), because it is a great product, improving continuously!
The (small) problem I have on SQL Developer 4.0 is that it shows me junk characters before the first connection I have in tnsnames.ora.
For example, if I have in tnsnames.ora:
FAKE=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=
      (PROTOCOL=TCP)
      (HOST=127.0.0.1)
      (PORT=9999)
    (CONNECT_DATA=
      (SERVER=dedicated)
      (SID=FAKE)
REAL=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=
      (PROTOCOL=TCP)
      (HOST=127.0.0.1)
      (PORT=9999)
    (CONNECT_DATA=
      (SERVER=dedicated)
      (SID=REAL)
In the dropdown list of the New Connection window, instead of showing me:
FAKE
REAL
It shows something like (they are strange character I don't have in my keyboard):
ì>?FAKE
REAL
Has anybody experienced the same problem? I have Windows 7 64-bit.
Thanks in advance!

rp0428 TSharma-Oracle
Thanks for answering, unfortunately I did not well specified the situation, but I don't have any character at the beginning, it's the first thing I checked
I have even tried several solutions, like leaving or removing the stardard comment at the beginning:
# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: Oracle Client Path\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
But it makes no difference.
Anyway I checked an ASCII map and the characters that appear are ï»¿
ASCII numbers: 139, 175 and 168
The file is Dos\Windows format and charset is UTF-8 (this is what Notepad++ says).
My keyboard is Italian (but I don't think it makes no difference) and I have modified the language of SQL Developer adding:
AddVMOption -Duser.language=en
AddVMOption -Duser.country=US
Into the sqldeveloper.conf file. But I already checked this too and it makes no difference to remove them (having SQL Developer in Italian as the OS)
Any idea?
