Strange occurance
A client of ours is using Firebird Server 2.1.1 database with our .NET program user interface
They have in some text fields the symbol º
One morning while running their program, the symbol º changed to �
Now the � symbol is showing as �
Nothing supposedly has changed on the server, workstations, etc.....
I've tried to recreate myself - using the º symbol, exiting out, symbol stays and shows correctly.
Has anyone ever seen anything similar, where you enter a symbol, and when you check it later it actually displays differently?
And any ideas on what to look for and check for?
