tFileInputDelimited cannot read currency signs

Hi all,

I am using a tFileInputDelimited to read a csv-file, but with a tLogRow I can see certain signs are not read correctly. For example currency signs as well as quotes. I saw you can change the encoding of the input, but that doesn't solve the problem.

Does anyone know how this can be solved?

HI,

in the tFileInputDelimited basic settings , you can check csv options, a new field will appear with csv escape char : """ is selected by default,

it will suppresse all the double quote.

If is not ok could you send some data example

Send me Love and Kudos

Hi,

 

It seems it doesn't work. Here some requested data examples

 

“TB-0-0879-18 STONE’S OEE”

CC P&B (€/unit)

 

What I see in the tLogRow:

 

TB-0-0879-18 STONES OEE

CC P&B (/unit)

 

So all kinds of quotes and currency signs are gone.

have you tried : "ISO-8859-1" if you select CUSTOM in encoding ?

Yes I tried, but the results were the same

I try with "Cp1252" as CUSTOM ENCODING it works

so you can use tChangeFIleEncoding component with use Custom Input Encoding

as "Cp1252"

and output encoding as UTF-8 for example

it will better for you for the rest of the job € will appear on utf-8 now
