Transformation Tool: Enabled on Fields with Danish Letters

Hi,

I am trying to transform a Form to a Page, where some of the code instructs NAV to set the Enabled property on a couple of database fields. The transformation tool converts it correctly, i.e. creating a variable (with IncludeInDataSet = Yes) and using the variable in code, for most fields. However, any field names containing Danish characters, such as æ, are not converted re. Enabled/Visible, and thereby, leading to compilation errors.

Have you experienced something similar? Can you help me with a solution to this problem (apart from renaming the database field avoiding the use of Danish characters)?

Thanks in advance,

    Field names should be in English with ML captions. Then you will not encounter any problems.

    Hi Gylfi,

    Thank you for your comments. :)

    As mentioned in my earlier question I did foresee that this might be the answer, so I kindly asked for suggestions allowing me to use Danish characters. However, in the meantime I have received an answer from Microsoft. They are not going to change the Transformation Tool, but have suggested a workaround: If we quote the field names containing non-English letters in the XML file, before running the Transformation program, it should be possible to keep the non-English letters and still get the code transformed correctly.
