I know the problem, but can't remember the exact solution. Your problem centers around character sets and extended characters. If you look closely the characters you are having problems with are extended characters, often Microsoft "smart" quotes. MX defaults to a different character set then previous versions. You can override this, but I forget the exact syntax. HTH

Our server has been brought up to upgrade 3 and the problem remains. The problem chracters usually appear fine in the database, and are often quotes of some kind or sometimes a special character. Before the pages displayed these normally, now the appear as a strange character or as a simple box. Does anyone know if Access 97 and MX pose a particular problem? Or would it be something else? See: http://www.ago.net/info/ago_exhibition_archive/exhibition_specific.cfm?ID=87 4 Most of the problems on this page are around the ' mark, and yet the accent in the artist's name is fine. Any suggestions welcome. Thank you, jms. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
