It would be so much easier if you told us your error message.

Another update :
After toying around with this, I think this is a subject for the PgAdmin
list. It looks like a display problem in pgAdmin. The characters are being
displayed with a client_encoding of UTF8 but not with a client_encoding of
WIN1252. My application, which sets client_encoding to WIN1252, receives and
displays the characters correctly. By the way, my pgAdmin is configured with
Preferences=>Font = Tahoma windows-1252 and Query=>Font = Tahoma 9
windows-1252.
