Kyle, we / I have had similar similar codepage problems 1 year ago, and here
https://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthr...ht=ansi&page=2 , you said, "Ultra Recall is a Unicode application, and Windows uses UTF-16 encoding for its APIs.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/win...2/intl/unicode
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/win...ntl/code-pages
Text is converted to UTF-8 encoding when stored in the URD file."
Since that was 1 year ago, and AFTER UTF-8 import did all the äöüéàè wrong, and then my Ansi trials worked fine, I hadn't remembered that very well, but remembered in the (mistaken) form that upon export, UR used UTF-8 then (btw, UTF-8 is not found by forum search, and for Ansi, I just find the link above, and this current thread).
So I'm at loss here, since I am 100 p.c. positive that any UTF-8 csv import does misrepresent non-ASCII characters in UR then - I saw it in the tree and in the content -, whilst Ansi csv import renders all those äöüéàè correctly, both in the tree and in the content. So can we convene that csv import is the exception to the rule you stated over there? ;-)
