Hi am rather instenively using the xamPivot-controls just now in order to migrate my applications, so I am afraid I will be rather active on this forum for a while.
I have a xamPivotDataSelector and a xamPivotGrid connected with the XmlaDataSource to MS analysis server 2008 databases. This all works fine exept that where data or dimension names contain our nordic characters it is presented like "Alle overføringer" which should read "Alle overføringer".
I first wondered if this was because of some xmlaDatsource settings missing on the IIS server, but when I use the same connection from Excel, everything is correct.
How do i get past this problem? i am afraid suggesting our customers to rename their employees and customers will be rather badly received :-)
Is it possible for you to run Fiddler and check how looks like the data returned by the server?
Hi, and thank you for your efforts.
Well I thought about this, and did what you suggested a couple of days back. My computer now has the language settings for Norwegian, but this does not seem to affect my application at all.
To validate my settings I put following settings into the MainWindows() method:
string cult=CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Name;Encoding enc=System.Text.Encoding.Default;
CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Name returns "nb-NO" (as it should), and you will find the values in the enc object in the screenshot below.
I might add that to test if this was a problem in my whole solution, I populated a xamDataGrid with data from the SQL-server containing all of our 'problematic' characters, and this was presented just as it should.
Regards
Jorvart
Hello again,
I think it's possible to be issue with the encoding because the WebClient in WPF uses the Encoding.Default to encode/decode the bytes when it downloads/uploads the messages. Could you try to change your system locale to points to Norwegian. If that works for you we can provide a fix that will extract the right encoding from LCID passed to the connection properties.

No problem at all.
Here you have a section of my customer dimension (country-customer) as displayed in the xamPivotGrid.
The two first entries should have read 'Færøyene' and 'Grønland'. Also the first of the customers should have been '(1004) Askim Frukt- og Bærpresseri'

Hello Jorvart,
Could you please send me a snapshot of situation in order to have a visual of where this text is displayed wrong.
