Dear Gabriel,<br>
<br>
It is a typical error when charset encoding is not set correctly
during the install. <b><u>It is not a vtiger bug</u></b>.<br>
<br>
Please check first in the phpmyadmin the database charset. The
default sql chartset is latin1_swedish_ci .<br>
It is not too good if you would like to use all German Characters.<br>
<br>
The best choice is utf8_general_ci (it will handle all öüóőúéáűí
ÖÜÓŐÚÉÁŰÍ äÄ ß đ Đ ł Ł í Í ş ţ ř etc. - even the all Central and
East European characters )<br>
<br>
1. You should reinstall all vtiger instance using the right utf8 sql
database in the background.<br>
2. If it need you should convert all language files for the German
localization from iso-8859-1 to the utf8 (without boom). The
Notepad++ program is very good for this purpose.<br>
3. Use UTF-8 charset in importing - exporting data. <br>
<br>
It works even for the Hungarian vtiger (and we have a little bit
more strange characters then you) :-) .<br>
<br>
Cheers:<br>
