>>Hi all,
Hi Koen,

Close: that gives an "s" with an upside down carat on it. I tried to find the one with the accent instead (bottom left to top right sloping accent). I looked in Word as I have used that before and it shows it as O15B (which some online web pages did) - how do I translate that to a numeric value that works with CHR()?

Thanks,
Albert

I have a utility for them that allows them to insert other common accented characters to any field but this one is not found in the 1252 code page. I also tried code page 1250 but I am still not seeing it. My utility just inserts the character using CHR(xx).
