huby Posted April 4, 2004 Posted April 4, 2004 howdy ! i have some issues using the "memo" data type in MSaccess (or even text files, for that matter) because when i load data in a textbox or label : 1. all my paragraph info is gone. the text appears as one big block. 2. a lot of special characters aren't displayed (é, à, and so on) i've tried tweaking with different types of encoding (ascii, utf8 etc) but that doesn't solve anything... anyone ? thanks for reading. hope your day is a fine one :D Huby.

MorningZ Posted April 5, 2004 Posted April 5, 2004 Don't know about #2... but for #1: you have to replace vbCrlf (or \n in C# i think) with a html linebreak ("<br/>") Quote If you make it idiot proof, they'll build a better idiot :-)
Arch4ngel Posted April 5, 2004 Posted April 5, 2004 (edited) I know that if you use special caracter like "é à ê" you'll have to use : HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(string) This is under System.Web. Remember not to put your flag (<b> <p>) inside that or they'll be encoded. using this will return an instance of a string which all caracter that aren't normally showed in Html page are replaced by something like &215; (or something else). Hope it helped you a little bit.
