[Gvsig_english] German Umlaut (ü,ä,ö,ß) and encoding in gvSIG

[Wolfgang Qual]

Dear list,
I have a (little) problem in gvSIG: one of our main tasks is to produce maps for internet usage. As we use UMN Mapserver with openlayers for displaying maps online, attribute data has to be stored in UTF-8 (otherwise, umlauts are not displayed correctly in the online maps). Therefore, when using gvSIG, I would need to specify the encoding for attribute data (when creating a new layer or if possible to convert between different encodings). However, I did not (yet) find a possibility to do this. Furthermore, I do not know the encoding used by gvSIG as the default setting. I tried to load UTF-8 coded attribute tables to a gvSIG project, but then, umlauts were not displayed correctly.
Would be  r e a l l y  happy for some comments regarding that issue!

Best.
Wolfgang
