Hello
I need to keep the accent marks in the SQL Server database.
My imported data (4000 + records) from a CSV in Excel contains hundreds of French diacriticals:
Each instance in the strings have changed to ? diamonds no matter what they were supposed to be. Is there a way to repair them after they have been imported or do I need to do this in the CSV file before the import, if possible? What character encoding will SQL Server keep?
Thanks for any help with this.
I will change the character encoding to UTF-8 when saving xlsx to CSV I think I solved the issue-
Thanks for looking.

UTF-8, that's the one! 🙂
