OemToAnsi (Function)

In french: OemVersAnsi

Converts a character string in OEM format (DOS) into a character string in ANSI format (Windows). The accented characters differ in the two standards. The conversion consists in modifying the accented characters.

Reminder:

ANSI is the format of characters according to the Windows standard.
OEM is the format of characters according to the DOS standard (or the format of the "console" window of Windows).

Example

Str is string
Str = Charact(130) + "t" + Charact(130) // "été" in OEM
Info(OemToAnsi(Str))
// displays "été" in ANSI in the Windows information window

Syntax

<Result> = OemToAnsi(<OEM Character String>)

<Result>: Ansi character string

Character string in ANSI format.

<OEM Character String>: Character string

Character string in OEM format to convert.

Remarks

OemToAnsi does not convert the characters whose ASCII code is included between 0 and 31 (control characters).
Caution: OemToAnsi must not be used with a character string containing specific OEM characters (accented characters): these characters will be transformed and the result will be incorrect.
