I'm getting the following error from a query being generated from MS Access : character 0xefbfbd of encoding "UTF8" has no equivalent in "LATIN9"Upon reviewing the archives I found the following: "Kevin McCarthy" <kemccarthy1 ( at ) gmail ( dot ) com> writes: > Often users will copy and paste text directly from MS Word docs into the > forms which will invariably contain Microsoft's proprietary formatting of > characters such as 'smart' quotes, trademark, copyright symbols, accent > grave, etc. We've set the HTML pages as UTF-8 and the database connection to > UTF-8.

You need to change it. Beware that you need the server's locale settings to be in step, too. regards, tom lane --------- So I ran tigris=# show server_encoding; server_encoding ----------------- UTF8 (1 row) and tigris=# show client_encoding; client_encoding ----------------- UTF8 (1 row) What else should I be looking at? thanks Warren Little Chief Technology Officer Meridias Capital Inc ph 866.369.7763 |
