XADM: DBCS Becomes "?" When You Click "Save Window Contents" |
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5
SYMPTOMS
In the Exchange Server Administrator program, when you click "Save Windows
Contexts" on the File menu, Double Byte Charactor Set (DBCS) characters are
not handled properly. All DBCS characters in the Administrator window
become question marks.
CAUSE
This is because the Exchange Server Administrator program (Admin.exe)
converts all UNICODE to Windows ANSI string. Windows ANSI string does not
contain the DBCS table.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 5.5. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service
Pack for Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5. For information on
obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft
