Data load uses wrong character set, where to correct? APEX bug/omission?

JPL_12Nov 20 2011 — edited Nov 24 2011

Hi,

I created a set of Data Load pages in my application, so the users can upload a CSV file.
But unlike the Load spreadsheet data (under SQL Workshop\Utilities\Data Workshop), where you can set the 'File Character Set', I didn't see where to set the Character set for Data Load pages in my application.

Now there is a character set mismatch, "m³/h" and "°C" become "m�/h" and "�C"

Where to set?

Seems like an APEX bug or at least omission, IMHO the Data Load page should ask for the character set, as clients with different character sets could be uploading CSV.

Apex 4.1 (testing on the apex.oracle.com website)
