Code-page Trailers
Some table dump files contain code-page trailers, which tell Progress the code page of the table dump file’s data. When you load such a table dump file, Progress reads the code-page trailer, determines the code page of the file’s data, and interprets the data correctly. In the current version of Progress, when you dump a database using the Data Dictionary utility, the resulting table dump file contains a code-page trailer. Figure 6–1 shows a typical code-page trailer with the code page name “IBM850.”

Other table dump files do not contain code-page trailers. When you load such a table dump file, you must tell Progress the code page of the file’s data by using the -cpstream startup parameter. To determine the code page of a table dump file that lacks a code-page trailer, see Understanding Code Pages."
