You're getting the characters where? Is this in your java code or after you put into the database then read back out? For your MySQL connection you will probably want to set the encoding. See it's connection parameters....if it's after putting the data into the database. I've seen this happen before. You're default encodings are probably different. Also if you are using a Reader to parse anything as a "stream" then you will want to setup some config to set your encoding there as well. Is this maybe after pasting from Word, or is this in IE using an encoding on the page or are you using an encoding with your form? You'll need to use the same encoding every where. JSP, Readers, MySQL, etc. Wade --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
