Change text encoding code#

String^ unicodeString = 'This string contains the unicode character Pi (О )' ДЄrray^unicodeBytes = unicode->GetBytes( unicodeString ) NET Char and String types are themselves Unicode, so the GetChars call decodes the data back to Unicode. How can i do this with correct text encoding?ДЄlternatively i could read line after line in the newly opened LibreOffice window with the imported file and then close it.The byte array is the only type in this example that contains the encoded data.

Change text encoding code#

I think the best way to achieve this is to read line after line of the imported file using code like Open MyDoc For Input As File_Number. Unfortunately I do not want the user to see a new window appear and i want the code to have high performance. The encoding is interpreted correctly - yay! When the MyDoc = StarDesktop.LoadComponentFromURL is executed a new LibreOffice Window shows up displaying the contents of the imported file. MyDoc = StarDesktop.LoadComponentFromURL('file:////', '_blank', 0, props() ) The improved - but still buggy - code is: Dim MyDoc As Object For some reason i need to provide the complete path to the file for the StarDekstop.loadComponentFromURL to work, although the text file lies in the same folder as the file running the macro. 'FIX,34,1,1,483647/9,1031,false,false'ДЇurther on i found one reason why my code didnвЂ™t run. This results in a window popping up that shows the FilterOptions i have to use in my macro to get the same results. If args(i).Name = 'FilterOptions' then inputbox '','',args(i).value Then i ran this code i found on the internet on the imported file: Sub showFilterOptions I determined the FilterOptions i need for my text file by manually opening it and choosing the needed import settings trough the GUI.

For the meaning of the parameters see Filter Options - Apache OpenOffice Wiki. There is a macro in Calc: open and save csv-file with given filter options only a line dim oDlg as variant is missing there. The error Message is: вЂњBASIC runtime error. Unfortunately this codes fails at вЂњOpen Mydoc For Input As File_NumberвЂќ. MyDoc = StarDesktop.LoadComponentFromURL(ConvertToURL('file_name.txt'), '_blank', 0, props() ) Props(0).Value = 'Text - txt - csv (StarCalc)' I realise that i have to use code that looks somewhat like this: Dim MyDoc As ObjectДim props(1) As New .PropertyValue How can i make Libre Office interpret my text file as ANSI encoded? Г¤, Гџ вЂ¦) to be incorrectly displayed as some strange (?) symbol.

This causes certain special characters (e.g. However Libre Office seems to interpret it as UTF-8 encoded. In order to be imported correctly, my text file has to be interpreted as ANSI encoded.

I have written a macro that reads line after line of a text file into a string variable: open file_name for input as file_number
