Warning: Render (23): One or more Windows Ansi specific characters has been substituted

Hi,

When I run my workflow in Alteryx Designer Version: 2021.4.2.05617, the following warning is returned:

Warning: Render (23): One or more Windows Ansi specific characters has been substituted with the corresponding Unicode point.

What does this warning mean? What can I do in my workflow design to remove this warning?

Thank you.

This was months ago, but since I didn't see an answer that works in the community for my particular issue with this code I thought I'd post here.

I had .csv input files and updated from ISO Latin to Unicode 8. (I can't snip for some reason but when configuring input it's Code Page field).

Thank you for the suggestion. I have formatted the respective fields using V_String, V_WString, V_String (Forced) and V_WString (Forced) but Alteryx still returns the same warning:

Warning: Render (23): One or more Windows Ansi specific characters has been substituted with the corresponding Unicode point.

Any further suggestions?
