Hi Don,
I am considering a character is special, if it not a alphanumeric and not space. In your code you considered only non numeric and not space special character. Please correct it to alphanumeric. I think i might mentioned it wrongly in the previous post. Sorry about that. I have only 15 fields as of now in each record. But I mentioned there were 20 fields in the each record in post#13. It is due to the requirement might change in future.
Thanks
Rakesh

We have a unix file that contains special characters (ie. Ñ, °, É, ¿ , £ , ø ). When I try to read this file I get a codepage error and the characters are replaced by the # symbol. How do I keep the special characters from being read?
Thanks.

to the character class associated with the called routine. The rest of this document just describes the character classes associated with
the various routines.
Note: A Tcl_UniChar is a Unicode character represented as an unsigned, fixed-size quantity.

Tcl_UniCharIsAlpha tests if the character is an alphabetic Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsControl tests if the character is a Unicode control character.
Tcl_UniCharIsDigit tests if the character is a numeric Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsGraph tests if the character is any Unicode print character except space.
Tcl_UniCharIsLower tests if the character is a lowercase Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsPrint tests if the character is a Unicode print character.
Tcl_UniCharIsPunct tests if the character is a Unicode punctuation character.
Tcl_UniCharIsSpace tests if the character is a whitespace Unicode character.
Tcl_UniCharIsUpper tests if the character is an uppercase Unicode character.
