SYMPTOM:
When updating the project status through Desktop 9.x with French characters there is no issue with the display. However, when updating the project status through Command Manager with a .htm file, French characters show up as boxes.
The script in Command Manager to update the project status is as follows:
ALTER PROJECT CONFIGURATION STATUS "c:\test2.htm" SHOWSTATUS TRUE IN PROJECT "Strategy Tutorial";
This is how the characters should be displayed:
CAUSE:
One possible cause of this issue is that the HTML file used to import the status is invalid causing the foreign characters not to properly display. This is caused by the format in which the file is saved.
ACTION:
Save the file as UNICODE and then change the file extension back to .htm.
