Thank you much Dar for your reply. This morning I tried on Windows: replace ":" with numToChar(240) in tDocName > no success
but, actually, when I past the mysterious char (kind of period) in the message box, I get "ð I mean I get quote followed by ð So I tried put quote & numToChar(240) into tVar replace ":" with tVar in tDocName > again no success When I paste the mysterious char directly in the script it is immediately replaced by "?" so I tried replace ":" with "?" in tDocName > no success I am completely lost. What could I do? Thanks in advance for any suggestion Best regards André Le 18 juil. 2013 à 22:47, Dar Scott a écrit : > That is a lower case eth. The Unicode is 00F0, F0 in Latin-1.
