Hi All,

I know it's an old question but I really need to solve that.

Whenever I use the query or identify function inside Geomoose for an Arabic charset (encoding Windows 1256) database records.

I always get it displayed in the side panel as unknown characters (snapshot attached), maybe Geomoose is dealing with it as Unicode.

So my question is :-
How can I display correctly the Arabic (encoding windows 1256 characters) within the side panel. ??

Thanx in advance.

Best Regards,
