I am using EA 12.0 Corporate edition Built 1215 - Unicode with database version 4.01 and I have the following problem. When I type one of theses characters: "ě č ř" and then save and reopen diagram the characters are replaced by e c r. Same thing happens if I just copy element with these characters (shown on example image bellow).

Here are more information:

  • Doesn't matter where are the characters typed. It could be at notes, properties, model, package, diagram, element... just anywhere
  • It happens when diagram is reopened or the element is just copied.
  • Doesn't matter if it is new project or existing
  • I tried different versions of EA (11, 12.1, 13) and it also has no effect
  • Doesn't matter if using "JET 4.0" (Options > general > "Use JET 4.0 - requires restart")

I have to use EA, so workaround using different program will not help.

Thank you for any information, any help is appreciated.

I think you not only have to turn the flag Use Jet 4.0 on, but you also need a 4.0 startermodel.
Now you are probably using the right driver on the wrong (v3.5) database.
IIRC you can download one from the Sparx website.

I had the same problem and all you have to do is to change your non-Unicode language Windows preference to your local.
