Guest JZ Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Greeting, I have XP Pro SP2 and text editor TextPad installed on two computers. I enter some Chinese characters in a TextPad on one computer, it looked good. But when I Save it, all text became question marks. I suspect it is not saved as ANSI code, therefore after Save, the text changed to ?????. Yet on the other computer, it works just fine. I verified the settings on Regional and Languages on both PC, both have Asian Language Pack installed and Non-Unicode set to Chinese. This also happens to my programming IDE, Delphi 7. When I save Chinese Characters in D7, I can see on the 'correct" computer a character was saved as 5-digt number, on the "wrong" computer it was saved as two 3-digit numers. However this does not happen to Word. On both computers, I can save Chinese characters jst fine. So I can there might be a compatibility issue of the applications with XP East Asian Language Package? The only thing I can think of is two PC use different installation CD to install XP Pro SP2. And does the installation sequence of TestPad or Delphi 7 and Asian Language Pack matters? I want to try that however I couldn't uninstall the Asian language pack. Could anybody help? It really drag my legs in terms of productivity. Thanks, JZ
