Question : 0xefbfbd of encoding "UTF8" has no equivalent in "WIN1252"
I'm getting the error below on this statement. I'm trying to open a connection to a PostgreSQL database. I have a ODBC data source defined, and I have installed the PostgreSQL ODBC driver.
Dim Reader As OdbcDataReader = catCMD.ExecuteReader()
ERROR [22P05] ERROR: character 0xefbfbd of encoding "UTF8" has no equivalent in "WIN1252";
Error while executing the query
Alternatively, can I use an SQL connection object. If so, what would I specify for Data Source?
Answer : 0xefbfbd of encoding "UTF8" has no equivalent in "WIN1252"
I change the driver from ANSI to UNICODE and the problem is resolved.
