Hi,

I am facing a problem in forms 6i.
Lets say i have a form where most of the text labels are in English. I want them to appear in Bulgarian.

So i open the form and in the label change the text from english to bulgarian language. When i type the text, the text appears as junk. But when i compile, generate and run the form the text appears in correct bulgarian.

If i create a new canvas, and create a new label, i am able to type in correct bulgarian.

Also i have another problem. If i assign the default value of a text field to some bulgarian text, when i compile,generate and run the form, the default value appears as junk.
The nls_lang parameters is AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1.
I am able to see bulgarian values properly from a table (either through a select from the table, or through a form by execute query)

Thanking youin advance.

Regards

Verify the nls_lang setting in each of the environments: your PC, the application server, and the database server. Then you will understand why you are getting different results in different environments.
