Single quote used with in text data renders to inalid display

102 Views

I have the following text snipit that is coming from an Oracle database column: ...did not include 'special decontamination'. New ...

I am putting this into a pretty standard text object. When the report is previewed and subsequently printed as a PDF each single quote is transformed to the text string &_#_3_9_; code (without the underscores). This also occurs for quotation marks appearing as &_q_u_o_t_; and ampersands appearing as &_;_a_m_p_;

I've tried changing the text interpretation property from none to rtf and, with a refresh, nothing changed. It is hard for me to believe that no one else has seen this but since you can not search the forum for this string (as it converts it to the single quote) may not one has asked.

Thanks in advance.
