Hi All…

I have a list of names in a field.

John Doe
Mary Jane
etc. etc.

When I do: 

put word one of the selectedText into tFirstname
put word two of the selectedText into tLastname

…and then try using the variables in an INSERT to SQL Lite it fails. It seems 
the put script above is inserting the extend ascii 168 character “¿” (upside 
down question mark). 

How do I clear those unwanted ascii characters out of my name variables? And 
why are they in there to begin with? It doesn’t seem like it should be just 
adding invisible characters to this process. I figured it out by adding the 
variable to a text editor and showing invisibles. Is this a bug?


Thanks for any advice!
