Hey all--
If having a weird issue I've never had before. I'm bringing some
text into an editField from a MySQL database. The database is in
UTF8, UTF8_general_ci collation. It has "smart quotes" in it, and
any place there should be a smart quote (single or double), there is
instead a black diamond with a question mark in it. Hm.
Here's the line, in a method of the editField, which puts in the text:
txt = rrr.Field(me.dbField).StringValue
if txt <> "" then me.Text = DefineEncoding(txt,Encodings.UTF8)
If I take out the DefineEncoding stuff (me.Text = txt) then I get the
usual foreign-character vowels that I've seen many times.
Any suggestions?
Ian
