Sc_set_export_name doesn't support accented characters

sc_set_export_name(“xls”,“testé.xls”); will not generate the xls file but sc_set_export_name(“xls”,“teste.xls”) work fine

I have never seen anything that will accept accented characters as a filename without coughing it up.

Yes but locally its very common to use, specially when the file need to contain the user name.

I think you have to clean those accented characters out prior to creating the file… will save you so many problems.

Yes you are right and I am doing it for normal report name.

Here in Quebec, all report have to be in french by default, unless requested to be in other language by the user.

In french the accented characters are mandatory, specially in the name of a user. So it has to be accented. I already receive complain about it from some user.

Ahhh! A fellow Canadian Scriptcaser! I am in BC.
I was under the false impression you were trying to save a File in the server with an accented character.

I just tried in Excel and it save my file with the accented character… so it must be a Scriptcase limitation.

You would think they would allow it with Regional Settings…

What if you generated the file, then renamed it after the fact?
