Employees file data seems to be in Chinese characters / Chinese Alphabets. How do you make it normal US English? ---

The demo files have contained Unicode characters for years. You need to tell Natural what to do with them. Natural Configuration Utility (natparm.exe) → Natural Parameter Files → select a NatParm file → Database Management → Adabas Specific → OPRB Here is an example that sets up two databases, 11 and 13, on a Windows box: ```auto (DBID=11,WCHARSET='utf-16le',DBID=13,WCHARSET='utf-16le') ``` Repeat the string for each database that uses Unicode. ---
