APPLIES TO


This article was previously published under Q133288

SYMPTOMS

Codepages for free tables and databases do not show in Project Information under the Data tab. Codepages do show for text files.

RESOLUTION

To determine the codepage of a table, open the table and type ?CPDBF() in the Command window. The Codepage will be displayed on desktop.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

Databases are also listed in the Project Information screen without a codepage. However, the tables in a database are not listed.

In the Project screen, using the right mouse button, click a file to bring up a menu with a codepage. The codepage can be selected and changed. The codepage choice is grayed out, when you use the right mouse button to click a table in a database or a free table.
