OK, it's been a thorn for forever. Smart quotes, tab characters, ellipses, emdashes...I can enter them using keystroke combos (good old Mac keyboard) but FMP exports them as garbage: TextWrangler Zaps them all to 0xFFFD, Unicode for "unknown character." And I'm talking about characters in text data in fields. Thi is not a situation where replacing by calc or global is feasible. Is there anything that can read FMP's garbage text? Do later versions of FMP do better? Thanks!
