I'm working on a form in which strings of text are being imported.
A lot of these strings contain special characters, like é, ö, ü, &, ï, etc...

When I convert these strings to text, so they can be shown as labels, the special characters either disappear (like the '&' sign) or they are shown as some sort of icons.
How can I let VB handle these strings, so the special characters are shown the way they should, without having to change the (many hundreds) original strings of text?

Thanks for your help!
