Sending punctuation marks to iPhones

Hi, I'm using the latest downlaod version but have people complaining that when they send messages containing things like £'!& etc they come out wrong i.e. don't becomes don?t
On normal phones (Nokia,Sony,LG etc) it's fine, it's just on iPhones it seems that the problem occurs.
Is there a generic setting I need to change (without breaking Nokia etc phones) ?

And yes, I tried to get the marketting dept to give me an iPhone but they just laughed :lol:


my code is ...

Dim coding as DataCoding = GetDataCoding()

.
.
.

req=client.Preparesubmit(......,coding,....)

Is this what I should change ?

Did you try to use DataCodings.UCS2 (Code 0x08)?
