Encoding Problem(Checked with ConvertFromCodePage funciton)

Hi,

 

I'm currently using raw data written in Korean.

I'm not sure what this file is encoded on, but Alteryx is unable to read it properly.

 

Since I don't know what the original code is, I've used a batch macro to read data's first two lines via the function ConvertFromCodePage, applying all codes available in Alteyrx(Codes from : https://help.alteryx.com/current/CodePages.htm)

 

However, the result showed that none of the codes converted the data properly.

Is there any other way/solution to fix this?

By the way, the original data is read properly when I open it with notepad.

Here's a good article to read on loading CJK text  https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Knowledge-Base/Inputting-Data-in-Chinese-Japanese-...

 

You need to make sure that the characters are loaded as double byte characters into a V_WString datatype. V-String does not support double byte characters.
