Hi.

I have a textfield that contains the text of an external XML file.

In the xml file i got alot of symbols that disappear when i import the text to the textfield.

Is there a way to preserve symbols like quatition marks and extra dots when import to a textfield ?

I tried using the toXMLString and toString

none of them seem to work.

Thanks
