Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues related to the loss of layout when saving lists locally as Unconverted files or copying to the clipboard, where the problem also affects ALV downloads via similar paths. The core issue stems from the use of different code pages during the save process, where the system’s UTF-16 Unicode code page differs from the one used for saving, leading to potential misrepresentation of characters, particularly Asian ones. This disparity can result in incorrect layouts within the saved files, and currently, there is no available correction for this mismatch that affects the layout.
Key words :
choosing system->list->save->local file->unconverted, system->list->save->local file->copy, system code page, saving code page, local file, save dialog, sap system, unicode system, saved file, functions mentioned
