Hello,

i'm using the syntax for showing menu, this works fine.

Custom SQL WHERE soort LIKE "%Restaurant%"

However if I want to show where the table contains Café i have an ACCENT problem. How do i fix this?

I tried

replace(replace(soort,'é','e')) LIKE COLLATE Latin1_general_CI_AI '%cafe%' COLLATE Latin1_general_CI_AI

OR

soort COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AI Like "%cafe%" COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AI

OR

oort LIKE '%cafe%' COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AI

but all three of them did not work and showed no result, do you know the solution of this problem?

thank you,

marK

Hi,

Sorry I don't know, this is a something about SQL query not Easy Profile. we should do some tests to find a useful syntax (though that may be different depending on the character encoding used by the DB).


Anyway, I suppose that Café and Restaurant are option of Select/Radio/Checkbox field type, it's true? if yes you can write options like these:
cafe|Café
restaurant|Restaurant
.....

with this in db are stored cafe not Café, so operations on DB are more simple.

Hello,

in our DB they're stored as f.i. "Caf\\u00e9" but this cannot be used in the field WHERE because of the "\\"

i solved this with a little detour => i omitted the character with the accent =>

soort LIKE "%caf%"

which works in our case

thank you for your help,
