Hi,

I have the same problem with Outlook 2003.
In vTiger I use UTF-8 encoding and everything is ok, bu when I sync vTiger with Outlook I have wrong chars.

Did you find solution for this problem?

I wonder is it outlook problem or maybe SOAP configuration?

Regards,
Marcin

Same problem here, very annoying. Our web server runs UTF-8 (Fedora Core 4), and I'd prefer not to change that due to other web sites and their configuration.

Other than this, the Outlook plugin is working great for us.

Same With Hebrew, after sync, I see ???? ???? ???? (the same number of charcters ) I understand that is issue of encoding in the soap module, nut there are a lots of pieces of code and I dont know the exaclly place to change. can you help ?

Hello,

I'm a french user, using FEDORA CORE 4 and UTF-8. same problem...

Can someone from the vtiger team help us. Maybe there's nothing to do, just wait to V5....

Please give us an answer.

Thanks

Hi, for Russian I resolved this only by switching from UTF-8 to koi-8r, which is 1-byte table. After such switching to 1-byte table I had no problems. Maybe you should try with one of the ISO- tables which soes correspond to your language.

It seems to me (correct me if I am wrong) that the problem is with Outlook itself...(

Hope this helps.
