source code charset/encoding problems

[Kwanbum]

Hello. My name is KB from South Korea.

I have a problem about customer's source code from French.

I've faced the messages that "The file contains characters that are invalid th the current charset/encoding and were replaced with '?'. The first invalid character is located at line xx, column xx. The file has been set to read-only. Opening the file with a different charset/encoding might fix the problem. " when I open the source code.

I've used Labwindows CVI 19 and Windows 10 64bit. I aleady installed language pack for French.

But it couldn't solve the problem.

How can I do?

Thanks.

Regards

Try changing the Character set for source code editor from Options->Font->Source Window Font and edit it to change the Character set to Western, I would say.

What the other poster said, otherwise you can convert the text using a command line such as:

iconv -c -f UTF-8 -t "ASCII//TRANSLIT" file.c
