Hi Bernd,

I also see same behaviour in Notes. Are you using any language pack on your Notes client? Mine is 'English'.

Thanks

Pure english at least on the server. German Language Pack on the clients, not on the developer machines.

I tried it locally in client. That's why I was wondering if it should display special characters. Must be showing help text for fields in local language (German in this case).
