Roadname field

A roadname field is mostly used in the creation of driving directions (such as in FleetEngine), but can also be used in a spatial join.

Names gets stored in unicode format, once imported.

When importing from a SHP/DBF file, you will have to specify the codepage, if both CPG file and languageID of the DBF (byte 29 in the header) is missing.

For all other data sources it happens automatically.
