Depending on which database engine you use, you might be able to do an srpl
in your select statement and have your DB engine replace all the characters
for you.

Or, if you want it out of the data stored in the DB you could do an update
with srpl to replace all extended chars with more sane chars.

Subject: Witango-Talk: Replace special characters in a resultset


We have a resultset from a sql server query that contains foreign
letters such as umlauts, etc.  These are fouling up our active
directory.  We'd like to do a search and replace on the resultset.  It
there a way to replace all occurances in an entire result at once
without doing iterations, or rows loops?

Thanks,
