Did you figure it out?your post helped me in figuring out how to extract with format fastload mode indicators and the use it to load in table using fastload script. Thank you very much.now regarding your question. did you try to convert the unicode char into something else in the fastexport script? I am not sure but I guess the unicode value is inrefering with the indicator that are used by the file.I will try to work on this too.and once again thanks for your post.
