Possibility to support Chinese Characters in Statistica Spreadsheet

Currently it is not possible to have Chinese data in the sta files from other data sources and we can only add the variable names in Chinese, can we add this possibility to handle the China country specific data as text.

    Hi Saurabh,

    The only option to display them in *.sta spreadsheets is a separate server for these users where the system locale is set to the "most approriate" Chinese setting: (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/forum/all/how-to-change-system-locale-in-windows-10-the/d7826ef0-13cd-43ea-8e01-2846d813dfed)

    Since this setting affects all users on the hardware, you really need a separate server to test these settings.

    The root problem is that the *.sta file format does not support Unicode. Respective idea already exists and can be upvoted here: https://ideas.tibco.com/ideas/STAT-I-207


    Best regards,
