I'm trying to represent Local NLS characters in a UTF8 string.
These characters are a result of a Base64 source code.
English translates fine, but, local characters are not.
So I'm getting a source string with only A-Z,a-z,0-9,+-= as the input characters (for those not familiar with Base64) and I use some DS Basic to decode the string to it's original source string(the routine binary, in a DSX export file, is posted in the FAQ Forum).
My problem is to get the resulting numbers using the UNICHAR() function to represent local NLS characters in the UTF8 locale.
Setting the Sequential File NLS property doesn't help. I'm using notepad++ to view the file after it is written to avoid DS Client viewing issues.
I'm probably overlooking something, Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your time
