Right, i have tried many different ways to do this but none seem to be working. im guessing then that im doing them wrong but here we go regardless:

opening the facts.lua file with note pad and saving as a text document type.
doing the same thing except while saving choosing UTF-8 in the encoding drop down box.
" " choosing unicode in the encoding drop down menu.
" " choosing ANSI in the encoding drop down menu.
changing the language in SciTE to text.
changing the encoding in SciTE to UTF-8.

thats all i can think of. also when i look over the facts data base they all seem to be ok. all facts that use films or something with double quotation marks ( " ) have been replaced with single quotation marks ( ' ).

also if its just alien characters then whats wrong with the following line in the data base :

Code:
"The Ecuadorian poet, José Olmedo, has a statue in his honour in his home country. But, unable to commission a sculptor, due to limited funds, the government brought a secondhand statue .. Of the English poet Lord Byron.", -- [613]
the only character that might be a problem is the é but i can do that easily in wow already.

tis odd.
