Hi Malte, So you say corrupted standalone texts with umlauts are a "standard" behavior. But there must be any mechanism working behind the scenes which "tries" to avoid this, because it doesn't happen every time. From time to time they are not corrupted, but I can't reproduce it. By time I made it as a standard procedure to restore my standalone settings after transferring from another platform and it is actually not that big deal, because it's one definite point (if I just don't forget it). But checking the scripts is really a mess, because I never know, in which script(s) the corruption could have been occurred or not. And a full test over all scripts and cases with messages isn't possible, so every new released version is "good luck" and praying with stomachache up to some time, where I don't get bad news from my customers. And no, I don't use an external script editor, just pure LC. Tiemo
