"Strange" chars via ODBC (NotesSQL)

Hi all. I’m developing a .Net application that connects to a NSFdatabase containing some e-mail addresses.

I don’t know how to manage some “particular” chars like these :

ò à è é

Actually when I try to write these chars, after reading them via ODBC,

they are replaced whit strange chars like à and ²

Have I to specify some particular connection options ?

Now I use this connection string :

connString = “Driver={Lotus NotesSQL DRIVER (*.nsf)};” & _

                "Server=MyServer;" & _

                "MaxVarcharLen=15360;" & _

                "Database=MyDatabase.nsf"

Thank you in advance and sorry for my english!
