The "CodePage" Command

This command modifies the database's codepage (updates the msi's "_ForceCodepage" table). The code page for the databases summary items can be set by updating the "CODEPAGE" property with the "Summary" command.

See the "Internationalization" section for more details.

The macro takes these parameters:

• Code Page (positional)
  This is an integer such as "1252" which is to become the database's code page. Not all values will be supported by your computer (not sure how support for others is added).

EXAMPLES

;--- Dump Existing Code Page (directory must exist) -------------------------
<$TableExportToIdt TABLE="_ForceCodepage" Dir="out\Before">

;--- Make the code page change ----------------------------------------------
<$CodePage "1252">

;--- Dump the info again (it should now be "1252") --------------------------
<$TableExportToIdt TABLE="_ForceCodepage" Dir="out\IDT\After">
