 Problem with romanian characters
AS/400, characters, Client Access V4R5, Client Access V5R2, Fonts, Romanian
Hello.. I am trying to set up a new PC to access a remote branch of a company we used to support in Romania and face a problem with some fonts. They don't display as they should. I'm attaching an example as a print screen for you to understand it. You can see the T letter with the comma underneath it (in red square) and how it does not correspond to the some down to the right, but to another character which looks like a p.



I've checked the following:

1. Host code page on Client Access -> 870

2. Edit Preferences / Keyboard -> Romanian

3. Windows/Control Panel -> Regional Settings (Romanian in 3 places, Format, Locale and Keyboard)

We used to be able to access this system (it was set up as a server for Romanian since 2007) but, then the branch closed and we no longer have the PC's we have set up back then. As i'm trying to set up a PC for access now, i cannot repeat the settings some other collegues did back then...

Do you have any ideas?

As it turned out, this was solved when installed Version 6.1 of Client Access. There was a legacy version installed before that, as old as 4.5. Actually, not even Regional Settings in Windows are now necessary. Installing code page 870 in the session configuration was enough.

No, and I removed it.

However, can you repost the image? All I see is a large blank space. What kind of image is it?

Here is another scheen shot. You can see the green screen menu here. And the word Clienti, where t should be the t with , which is in romanian. Instead, it is displayed with something like p.
