Text Find / Replace - Find Norwegian character

FinalBuilder Bugs
1

FinalBuilder version: 5.5.0.366

 

I'm trying to use the Text Find / Replace action to find and replace a Norwegian character (ø), but there are no matches.
If I search for "a" instead, I get lots of hits - so the action is working, it just doesn't like Norwegian characters.

Any idea on how to find a non-standard character in a text file?

Hi Bjorn,

What format is the text file in?

Angus

Yeah, I’ve had an issue like that, where it was a DOS text file - you have to search for that exact character, regardless of how it appears in Windows. If you know the ascii code for it, you can use a regular expression, like \xE9 for ascii code 233 for instance.
