[Gvsig_english] gvSIG 1.9 (1243) some issues regarding the latest version

[Wolfgang Qual]

Hi list,
again, I made a new test. I thought that empty cells may cause the 
problem with cropped/mixed cell content. Therefore, I deleted all 
columns that contain no values. Also colums were deleted
which do contain only few empty cells. Then, I added some new fields and 
used the field calculator. Afterwards, I changed the name of some 
columns and closed the field manager.
The table looked nice, but when my edits were saved (left the edit 
mode), all got mixed up again. Very frustrating. I could reproduce this 
behaviour more than 5 times. It seems as if using the field manager to 
delete some columns causes the problem. Screenshot enclosed (there are 
values like "llgemeinmedizin" and "rau", "err" which should be 
"Allgmeinmedizin", "Herr" and "Frau".

Additionally, it seems to be very important to define the correct font 
encoding, _before_ one starts an editing session. Otherwise, the table 
will be not usable any more, as umlauts cannot be restored again...

Best,
Wolfgang
