Hello

In some DB a table was imported but some field defined as nvarchar contains bad accentuated char

Exemple :
quote:
Elzeelsesteenweg;Chaussée d'Ellezelles;N57


It must be in fact 'é' but not 'é'

Do somebody already encounter this experience and knows a generic way to fix all those 'wrong' converted char ?

Thank for your help

Merci de votre aide

Hello

The only way I found for now is to make a set of update with tricky replacement as

REPLACE(streetName,'é','é')

But I've first to find out ALL those UTF8 to replace
Still no better solution ?
