Hi All,

I have imported some data from csv files in my DB. Now that data has some i=
nvalid characters stored in it.
so I get this exception:

Exception in ChannelDAO Invalid character data was found.  This is most lik=
ely caused by stored data containing characters that are invalid for the ch=
aracter set
 the database was created in.  The most common example of this is storing 8=
bit data in a SQL_ASCII database.


Now, I tried using to_ascii() fn in my select query but it didn't work. Cn =
you please suggest any solution so that invalid characters should not come =
to my webpage while displaying.

Regards
Raman Garg
