UTF8TextConverter new nextFromStream: '??' asString readStream

Thanks for the explanation. After changing stream nextPut: char basicSqueakToIso . to stream nextPut: char . in readStringAtAddress: anAddress from SqliteResult I was able to get the character back that I expected (after using the UTF8TextConverter). And now the following works also (where name contains the UTF-8 string): arrayOfDicts do:[:row | Transcript show: ((row at: #name) convertFromEncoding: 'UTF-8'); cr] Regards Roger
