Stored procedures
The Unicode property is used to:
  • Determine if the value of a control is a Unicode string.
  • Specify whether the value of a control is a Unicode string.
Remark: This property is very useful to manage the controls linked to an HFSQL item in Unicode format. Remark: From version 19, HFSQL is the new name of HyperFileSQL.
Example
// Checks whether the value of EDT_EmailMessage is in Unicode format
IF EDT_EmailMessage.Unicode = False THEN
EDT_EmailMessage.Unicode = True
END
