HeyNow  Oblivious  Gold Star Hey! 5965 Posts 1/03 |  Posted - Jun 10 2007 : 12:02PMI use Word to type up my Quickie Review posts and this last time I saw ADT wasn't taking the "special" characters that Word creates like the apostrophe in I'm, the hyphen that I use - like that one and I'd think the right and left "quotes". TEST: I’m A long – dash! “quote” END TEST They show up fine in my message box but not in the preview. It used to take these - though one time when the Weekly Fix used a portion of the Quickies it replaced these type characters with a box, at least in my email. My fix so far as been to edit within the message entry box. I can't find an option in Word to disable these and just give me a pure quote, apostrophe or a hyphen. Even plain vanilla courier changes them. (I can't believe I'm posting in Tech Talk!) [Link] |

| HeyNow Oblivious Gold Star Hey! 5965 Posts 1/03 | Posted - Jun 10 2007 : 11:14PM I'm just kidding. All greek to me. I'm using Firefox. I won't worry about it as it shows up fine in the end - but I'll probably transfer to plain text that Harri suggested in the future. [Link] |

| budtugley Senior Member One man's trash can be the next man's treasure. 1187 Posts 1/04 | Posted - Jun 14 2007 : 2:52PM Word uses Unicode which can use many more characters and languages, more than 100,000 so far. If you type something in Word and try to open it in wordpad or notepad, usually you see hash. If you keep it simple, it's usually readable but some characters will change. [Link] |
