Encoding of csv files in Export Grid function

Hi,

We recently updated Active Table Editor to version 5.3.4.19 from 5.3.1.27 on our clients.
Regarding the Export Grid function we noticed that the encoding of csv files changed from "UTF-8" to "UTF-16 Little Endian".

Now we have the issue that the import procedures of a few applications can't process the UTF-16 files. So we have to manually convert the files to UTF-8 again.
Is there a specific reason, why UTF-16 is used here? Is there a way to control, which encoding is used for the csv export?

Best Regards

Julian

We depend on third-party components here. We will check it and revert it back for you.

That should not take long.

Will let you know once it is ready

Hi Julian.

I had a look at the changes history and I can see that it's been UTF-16 Little Endian for a while
So just changing UTF-16 Little Endian to Utf8 may upset some users

What we did instead is added a new option to the application properties dialogue



Please have a look at the latest version and let us know if it works for you or not

Hi Mike,

It works as expected in version 5.3.4.21.
Thank you for the fast support.

Best Regards

Julian
