Error importing special char since update to 4.5.0

[houlejo]

Hi,

I was running version 4.2.1a with the BitRock package.
I was doing import without any glitches.

Now that I have upgraded to 4.5.0, I can't import special characters...

so "é" is looking like "颥".... I really don't know what it is...

I've tried some things suggested on these forums.
I changed the default_charset in php.ini to utf-8
I changed de charset in config.php to utf-8

I have a Win 2k server SP4
Sugar Open Source 4.5.0
Apache 2.0.55
PHP 4.4.3
MySQL 5.0.22

thanks !!!

Hi.

You have to see, if your charset before the upgrade is the same that the actualy.

if changed, this can be broken the characters.

Sorry for my bad english.
