We have fixed this problem. The fix will be included in the next build of IBDAC.

Not a good idea anyway

Why complicate life when you do not have to....
File and directory names should be written in good old English (the language of computing remember?) or at least roman alphabet without accents or special chars (I even do not put any spaces).

that limits the problems in inter applications dialogs

I live in Greece where we have Greek alphabet so I know from painful experience......
