It's not a livecode problem, but finding a common ground for livecode & postgres. SQLite allows insertion of a turnip into an integer field, or anything else; there is absolutely no type checking. I've cleaned all my offending examples out . . . . And now I've tried to replicate with psql, and I can't. The error was that on a curly-quote that originated at http://www.leg.state.nv.us/NRS/NRS-021.html#NRS021Sec090 (in "miner's") threw the error. I also got it from double-curly quotes that came from somewhere. If I can limit livecode fields to UTF8, I think it solves my problems. A particular one that *will* come up is mac using attorneys with windows running in a virtual machine doing cross-os pastes. -- Dr. Richard E. Hawkins, Esq.
