The data is apparently not UTF-8 so client_encoding needs to be set to something else. 0x92 is a hint that the encoding might be Windows-1252 or Windows-1250 since that byte represents the right single quotation mark in those encodings; that's a common character in data that originated in Windows. Also, client_encoding can be set by the client without having to restart the backend. -- Michael Fuhr ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
