String Serialization issue

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hello

Using Visual Studio, I created a WebService with the default
"HelloWorld" method. It all works fine but when I try to get the
method to return a French string, all the accented characters are
removed. ie. I changed the webservice implementation to:

<WebMethod()> _
Public Function HelloWorld() As String
Return "Hello décès"
End Function

and when I invoke it on my server I get

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<string xmlns="http://tempuri.org/";>Hello dcs</string>

Can somebody tell me what is going wrong?

BTW, it works fine on my development machine but not on the production
server.

Paul
