Re: apostrophe in access db field
sounds like a 'smart quote' (one of those curly MS Word quotes). there's a UDF called demoronize() at cflib that should handle this.

Re: apostrophe in access db field
There's also a tag out there called StripAscii that is intended to strip out MS Word high-ascii chars. I think it's called CF_StripAsci, and I *think* I got it on the DevEx. I use it all the time to reformat text submitted via a textarea in a form. We have a place where users can post articles to our site, and most of the time, they are just copying and pasting from Word to the textarea, which mucks things up. I've found that this tag works wonders with that app. Charlie Griefer wrote: sounds like a 'smart quote' (one of those curly MS Word quotes). there's a UDF called demoronize() at cflib that should handle this.
