codepage

Name of the code page that Progress uses in memory.

Use Internal Code Page (-cpinternal) to identify the code page that Progress uses in memory and for graphical clients. For graphical clients, the -cpinternal code page should be the same code page that the operating system uses. If you do not use -cpinternal, the iso8859-1 code page is used by default.

NOTE: Do not use a 7-bit table with -cpinternal. Use 7-bit tables for converting data from a 7-bit terminal to another code page only. Do not use them for character conversion in memory or for the database.

To retrieve the value of this startup parameter at runtime, use the CPINTERNAL attribute of the SESSION System handle.
