Hi Mike,
I have 600 Arabic text files converted from html format. When I try to
load them into WS all the file names are replaced by question marks
and WS freezes. The file names are in Arabic. Is there a way I can
keep the file names without changing them into Latin letters when
using WS. Changing 600 file names manually is time-consuming. I use
WS4 for Arabic texts.
Regards, Yasin

Yasin, hi
Frustrating!
http://www.lexically.net/downloads/version5/HTML/?rename.htm will help
you.
As a matter of fact I am just finishing tweaking the filenames
handling in WS5 so that all of these in future should be correctly
handled but that won't help WS4 I'm afraid. In WS4 you will have to
rename them I think.
