>You don't need a Swedish keyboard to insert vowels with diacritics. For a Windows-1252 text, these sequences will do. The numeric part of each sequence must be pressed in the numeric keypad, while keeping the ALT key pressed down.

>å = ALT 0229
>ä = ALT 0228
>ö = ALT 0246
>Å = ALT 0197
>Ä = ALT 0196
>Ö = ALT 0214

>If you're emailing the text and the transport requires UTF-8 encoding, then you must convert it with STRCONV(). Besides that, it's a bit hard to figure out what may be causing problems based on the general description "when emaling to a Swedish database". But it may be clearer to others.
