Hi All, So I have data (text) stored in a mySQL DB that is set for UTF8 and it stores unicode and emoji characters just fine.
My problem is that when I pull a field from the record set and put it into a LC field, I don’t get the unicode or emoji, just the the usual strange characters. I know that LC fields support emoji and other unicode characters. I can cut and paste them in and they display fine. My steps in getting the data from the DB to a LC field are: Load the data into an array element like: put revDatabaseColumnNamed(sRecSet,"tw_full_text") into gCurrentRec["tw_full_text"] Then: put gCurrentRec["tw_full_text"] into fld "tw_full_text" I’m probably missing some encoding or decoding step along the way… can some one point me in the right direction?
