Yes, a 'why' may uncover a better solution. Most people usually want to do this because they see odd characters when outputting data from their access database because they arent using the Unicode driver
-----Original Message----- From: Ben Mueller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 26, 2007 2:43 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Text encoding Do any functions exist that will take an arbitrary string of text and convert all the non-standard characters into their character code equivalents? For example, ü (u with an umlaut) with ü. I know that ASC() will do this with a single character, but I need to be able to do it on an entire string of text. Any help is appreciated.
