Question
How to embed umlauts in a DWControl file?
Solution
To use umlauts in DWControl, like for example ä,ü,a, you have to edit the following settings within the *.dwcontrol file itself:
You have two options:
- Use UTF-8 encoding. (Test with Notepad++ and change encoding.)
Important:
Umlauts are going to be rewritten. You have to paste them again afterwards manually.
<Field dbName="DOCTYPE" type="Text" value="AuftragsbestäxE4tigung" /> - Keep ANSI encoding and change the XML tag at the beginning:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
