TEST MESSAGE - TESTING PUNCTUATION

Re: TEST MESSAGE - TESTING PUNCTUATION

SEP/Michael,

The problem does not occur from direct entry, it occurs from a cut/paste from any text formatted with rich text.
To me, it reeks of a code page issue or character set. But I guess it could be as simple as the forum SW doesn't know squat about rich text & it's codes.

Rgds,
Jeff

So, here comes a paste from word

" = Quote
, = comma
' = app
^ = hat
! = pling
< = than

Re: TEST MESSAGE - TESTING PUNCTUATION

Jeff, the problem _does_ also occur in direct entry! Seen my first post, second column. Those should all be valid characters. The names are next to it, these were entered in this input window and showed fine.

I also posted this in the issues thread a while back

Re: TEST MESSAGE - TESTING PUNCTUATION

Hi Merijn - OK I do see that.
It further confirms my suspicion that it can't handle certain codepages.

Rgds,
Jeff Having fun & enjoying it. Definitely now as I'm hitting the beach in Florida next week on holiday - or vacation as we Yanks call it.

Re: TEST MESSAGE - TESTING PUNCTUATION

Hi All,

Thanks for the test and confirming the cut and paste issue from Word.

This is also a paste from Word. Iâ ve got the lab working on this problem now, we believe it primarily affects apostrophes, but also there is a truncation issue. John has provided much information on this.

Thanks again, and have a great Christmas holiday...

Thanks Dan

How are you doing on the formatting and spaces issue as the can be a problem when we post scripts.

Happy Holidays

Hi Paula,

The lab believes they have a fix. I'll check with them and see if we can get it in as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Dan

Re: TEST MESSAGE - TESTING PUNCTUATION

I had a cut and paste from my Telnet window and got bad characters...

Of course I can't duplicate it now... hehe

the error was near the -fnC portion... around the dash.

Re: TEST MESSAGE - TESTING PUNCTUATION

Here is a second thread where I posted from IE6.0 and had problems.

I cut and pasted from a website to translate english to spanish.
