Problem displaying hebrew characters

Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hello,

I have a really strange thing happening.

2 computers which have the same operating system. My database connection is an oracle ole db

One computer shows hebrew characters. I copied the qvw file to the other computer and it shows the reults in hebrew as well.

But when I press reload the hebrew characters turn into question marks.

I checked the the encoding is on unicode and not ansi.

Have no idea what to do next

Thank you

This question is posted in the wrong spot.

Can you tell me if this question is for QlikView or Qlik Sense, so I can move it to the right section?

Thank you.

A question marks is normally the replace-character of qlikview if any value has no string-representation. Therefore you should get a visible output if you used functions like text(), num(), dual() and/or to check them functions like len() or ord(). But this is rather not a solution else a workaround respectively a way to find out what's going on.

I think you need to check again if really all settings to the char-set are the same. This also includes the various windows-settings, for example the region-settings then qlikview will use them. Here an example what is meant and what might be related to your case: Search - But what shall you find?
