It looks like some part of the code is missing; I can't see where $dbh_pweb is created. > Encode::from_to( > $headingsubject, "utf-8","ISO-2022-KR"); If it finds wide characters in the $headingsubject, apparently the database has already decoded it. All you have to do then, is encode it. from_to combines decoding and encoding in a single function. $headingsubject = Encode::encode("ISO-2022-KR", $headingsubject); -- Met vriendelijke groet, Kind regards, Korajn salutojn, Juerd Waalboer: Perl hacker <##...@juerd.nl> <http://juerd.nl/sig> Convolution: ICT solutions and consultancy <sa...@convolution.nl>
