I am importing a data set in Spanish and I am not able to find the correct file encoding for Distance...I tried UTF-8, Windows 1252, ISO-8859-1 and Occidental europe (ASCII/American English) from the available options in Libreoffice Calc. Labels are not correctly interpreted in either case.
I did not find anywhere any reference to the particular file encoding that Distance 8.0 assumes when importing, could someone give me a hint?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Asier

Welcome to the list. I'm afraid I do not have a ready answer to your question about encoding for use when importing data files into Distance 8.

If you would be so kind as to send me (off-list) some or all of the file you are trying to import, I will experiment to see if I can find an answer for you.

Thanks a lot for responding, Eric. I'll send you an example dataset off-list.
Best regards,
Asier
