Question:

ActiveX Upload ResponseBody returning gibberish

Jan 23 '13 at 15:36

This is what I am getting. I imagine it's a charset issue, but I've tried every combo of VariantToString I can think of in this manner... VariantToString(result,"UTF-8")

result="????????=???=?????????????????????????????????????????????=??????}"

Any suggestions how to convert it?


Answer

I would recommend brushing up on some required concepts first. Start here:

and then sequence through the tutorial by clicking the "Next: ..." link at the end of the text on each page. Study the information on each page. The last web page in the tutorial may answer your question.
