[Important]Important

CATPRODUCT_INSTANCENAME must be unique in CATIA, otherwise you get problems when two files have the same PARTNUMBER in one CATIA session. Also: CATIA V5 is based on the ISO 646 standard, which does not support multi-byte character code. Please use repTable Function to have good CATIA attributes.repTable function to have good CATIA attributes.

reptable just replaces one set of characters by another.

Example:

CATPRODUCT_INSTANCENAME=?GetObject("iface.calcnameservice").start(0).Format("<ATTR(NB)>")
 .reptable("").value()

Possibly an expression like "Format(„<ATTR(NB,english)>“).toAlnum()" instead of "reptable" also makes sense.
