    Hi nadir ,

    I can't reproduce your issue. Can you please share more details?

    • What do you set in the region settings?

    • Do you set data type to country or country/region?

     

    If you could post a dummy file, we can test it and find the issue easier.

     

    Best Regards,

    Xue Ding

      Hi v-xuding-msft 

      Thanks for your reply and sorry for my late reply.

      1. I set  the region settings for current file to Arabic Suadi Arabia

      2.  Regarding setting the  data type to country or country/region , the data in this field is a text data which has the Tenant Name in Arabic , but eventhough I tried to change it but no luck.

      3. As I explaind in my post , the data is correctlty displayed in Power Bi Desktop , the problem is only when I publish the report to the service.

      4. I am connecting to SQL server data , will you please tell my how to share a dummy file from the data.

      Best

    Hi

    I did changed the data type for the field to Text (eventhough it was text only!!!!) , then saved and published the report and it is working fine. 

    Hope this will help others 

    Thanks to everyone
