EPIM 9.6.1 Pro 32 bits - Bug = Question marks are not synced to Outlook

Post by Laurent C. »

Hi

:arrow: When a text is modified in EPIM, all the question marks (="?") are not synced with Outlook 2019 Pro :(

And, at the end, after syncs both ways, all this data is forever lost !

Regards

PS : It could be true for others special characters = a code review must be undertaken...

All question marks "?" in texts are wiped from EPIM to Outlook...

Texts in any module? Only after you modify text the question mark symbol is not synched? You sync directly with the local copy of Outlook or through Outlook.com/Office 365 account?

Too sorry: forgotten to notice you it was notes :?
The text in a modified EPIM note does not sync question marks in sentences to Outlook Pro installed in W10 = See also my footer config :wink:

But ...
It seems very very weird :shock: and that needs a tough code review for all the special characters
I can't reproduce directly from EPIM : I need to enter the sample inside Android app first !?!!!
Try the sample below in an EPIM Android note — sync to EPIM PC — sync to Outlook Pro PC : yes, that is the case :roll: !!!
= Only ? disappears !?!!!
Regards

Sample Android note :
Title = A bug ?
Why question mark is deleted ?
>>> Perte des " ? " de EPIM vers Outlook !!!
&é"'(-è_çà)=^$ù*! \°löÖøØ¿Ù

Sample Outlook synced :
Title = A bug ?
Why question mark is deleted
>>> Perte des " " de EPIM vers Outlook !!!
&é"'(-è_çà)=^$ù*!   \°löÖøØ¿Ù

besides missing question marks, your example might show also missing spaces in the "&é"'(-è_çà)=^$ù*! \°löÖøØ¿Ù" line, but this could be also a problem of the rendering of the forum software.

Looking at your posting normally, there are three vs. one blanks in the "! \" part, but quoting your text in the forum editor shows three blanks in both lines.

The trailing blank after "Ù" might be a copy/paste artifact.

It was just my full sample for testing
I added &é"'(-è_çà)=^$ù*! \°löÖøØ¿Ù to try and it seems to work
To me, at this point, only the "?" disappears in Note module...
