View 3 RepliesI have a dropdownlist which I dynamically select a list item using findbytext as long as there are no special characters. One entry in the list starts with a percent symbol which I have been unable to dyncamically select. I have confirmed that there are no spaces in the list item and have hard coded the query with the string to try to find the problem. FindByText("% Increase") I believe it has something to do with the special character but have been unable to identify a method to work around this.

Not ddlColumns1.Items.FindByText(strDefault)

Nothing
Then
ddlColumns1.Items.FindByText(strDefault).Selected = True

I'm builing a websight and has encountered an anoying problem. I'm using a gridview and and in the "gridviewRowDataBound" I placed this code:
foreach (TableCell cell in e.Row.Cells)
{
cell.ToolTip = cell.Text;
}
the problem is that the tooltip dosn't show some special charactes and since the websight is for swedish users the "Å,Ä,Ö, é" characters is replaced with other special characters and numbers. If i place a tooltip on a button or other elements the tooltips are displayed properly. Does anybody know how to fix this.

View 1 RepliesI've got a program that in a nutshell reads values from a SQL database and writes them to a tab-delimited text file.
The issue is that some of the values in the database have special characters (TM, dash, ellipsis, etc.) When written to the text file, the formatting is lost and they come across as junk "â„¢ or â€" etc"
When the value is viewed in the immediate window, before it is written to the txt file, everything looks fine. My guess is that this is an issue of encoding. But, I'm not real sure how to proceed, where to look, or what to look for.
Is this ASCII or UTF-8? If it's one of those how do I correct it before it's written to the text file.
Here's how I build the text file (where feedStr is a StringBuilder)
objReader = New StreamWriter(filePath)
objReader.Write(feedStr)
objReader.Close()
I'm fairly new to ASP.NET and have the following problem:
I add data to an Access database through a form on a aspx.-page. Now my problem is, if the user enters characters like " or & the syntax of the SQL command i send to access changes and the whole thing crashes. :-(

I'm using the code below to allocate tags in an XMl document into groups using the char[] alphabet below.
This works great for tags that start a-z. However I have some tags in the XML document that can start with special characters (eg 0-9, ! @ # $ & * etc)
I'd like to put them all in one group called "SP". Is there a way to do that?
