Hi Damien,

Other than the earlier suggestions of htmlText and
UTF-8, you can always change the encoding attribute at
the start of your XML-file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8509-1"?>

That's what we use at work to preserve special
characters when exporting data from our PROGRESS
databases.

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.
