Re: Vowel with Umlaut

[GRAEME F ST CLAIR]

Like I said - "simple" - the editor is Textpad under 
Windows 7, and it has an "encoding" save option of 
"UTF-8"...  Job done, thank you.

I had trouble with UTF encoding in an earlier little 
project (SQL & PHP), and ended up using raw data in ANSI, 
then mangling it as it went through.  So I'd kind of 
ignored the option ever since.

Tx, GFStC.
