Special Characters - Check Box without Check

I just completed a marketing letter that will be turned into a marketing template for disterbution to would-be clients via eMail. In this marketing letter their is a short survey with yes and no answers. Before each answer their is a box ( ☐ Yes ☐ No ).
How do I formate the box to allow the client to replay to this email by simply adding a check the correct box and sending it back to me?

Not possible in Pages which would be a poor choice anyway as it doesn't appear as a document in the email, nor would most recipients have the software to open it.
You can make a .pdf form to do this but require Adobe Acrobat Pro to format the form.
The other alternative is to make up an HTML email with some JavaScript to make it work.

  • Special Characters Check in OBPM

    Is this code good to check for special characters in OBPM 10GR3?
    Pattern p = Pattern.compile("/[a-zA-Z0-9]/g");
         Matcher m = p.matcher("This is a string");
         boolean matched = m.matches();
         logMessage("--Identifying Special Characters--"+matched);
         if (matched == true)
              logMessage("--Contains Special Character--");
         }

    Here's what I use to fix file names to ensure that they do not have special characters or international characters:
    String beforeConversion = "àÀâÂäÄáÁéÉèÈêÊëËìÌîÎïÏòÒôÔöÖùÙûÛüÜçÇ’ñ";
    String afterConversion = "aAaAaAaAeEeEeEeEiIiIiIoOoOoOuUuUuUcC'n";
    // does it contain international characters?
    if (originalFileNameArg.match(regexp : '/[àÀâÂäÄáÁéÉèÈêÊëËìÌîÎïÏòÒôÔöÖùÙûÛüÜçÇ’ñ]+/').length() > 0) {
        int i = 0;
        String @char;
        while (i < beforeConversion.length()) {
            originalFileNameArg = originalFileNameArg.replace(from : beforeConversion.charAt(position : i),
                                                              @to : afterConversion.charAt(position : i));
            i = i + 1;
    String[] m = originalFileNameArg.split(regexp : '/[^a-zA-Z0-9_,']+/');
    int i = 0;
    boolean first = true;
    foreach (item in m) {
        if (! item.empty) {
            if (first) {
                retValue = item;
            else {
                retValue = retValue + " " + item;
        first = false;
        i = i + 1;
    return retValue.trim();Dan

  • Skype Showing Special Characters as Boxes []

     Just less than an hour ago, I had a problem with some virus-extensions. I did necessary uninstallments and downloaded Adwere to make sure the extensions are gone for good. Once I've done so, Adwere uninstalled many different files. So far, no problem with anything in Skype. Except my name and other special characters.
    Like, now some Japanese/Chinese/Korean ETC. characters are showing as boxes. What bothers me the most is my name. It used to be (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ but now it shows like this: http://puu.sh/cndAy/f9f6c721dc.png . I'd like to keep the same font, Tahoma (8 points) because it has been the same always and my name and other characters in my friends' names ETC. where always shown. So any solution instead of changing fonts/installing fonts is appreciated because I'm so used to Tahoma's look on the many years I used Skype and don't want any change.

    You're right that whitespace doesn't show as squares anymore (I think they did in the past), but everything else seems OK.
    Why don't you try something like this and prove for yourself:
    select '     
    !"#$%&''()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~€‚ƒ„…†‡ˆ‰Š‹ŒŽ‘’“”•–—˜™š›œžŸ ¡¢£¤¥¦§¨©ª«¬®¯°±²³´µ¶·¸¹º»¼½¾¿ÀÁÂÃÄÅÆÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÐÑÒÓÔÕÖ×ØÙÚÛÜÝÞßàáâãäåæçèéêëìíîïðñòóôõö÷øùúûüýþÿ' from dualRegards,

  • How To: Display Special Characters, Not Boxes?

    Okay, here's a question. I searched the FAQs, the support pages, and used the search forum option and came up with nothing, so here I am.
    I have CDs that are from other countries, namely Japan. The bands names and song titles are written in Kanji (the symbols rather than letters written out).
    When I import the songs to iTunes, the kanji characters show up as little squares instead of the actual characters.
    However, when I copy the song title or band name and then paste into a messenger window or Word or a browser search bar, it shows up just fine.
    To me, this says the information is still there, just not displaying correctly in iTunes. And since I can see it in other applications, my computer can obviously read the character set.
    As it stands right now, and in past releases of iTunes, I have to decide which "four square" song is the song I wish to listen to. (When there are 20 "four square" songs by the same "two square" artist, all roughly 3 minutes in length, it gets a bit difficult to figure out which song is the one you're wanting.)
    Side note - On my iPod, it doesn't show up as boxes, but rather as funky symbols that are not in any way kanji. Like an A with a degrees sign over the top of it and various $%*# symbols instead of the Kanji.
    So, the question is, is there a solution to this or at least somewhere I can enter the question as an "I need support" question?
    I found places to report everything under the sun except for iTunes or the iTunes store. Very... disturbing...
    Thank you for your time and I hope someone at least has a suggestion!

    Thanks in advance.

    Depends upon encoding methods handling will differ,
    you can use ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-2 instead of UTF-8 for some special characters.

  • Special characters conditions in receiver determination

    hi there,
    i have the following problem:
    There are conditions in receiver determination to find the proper xsl mapping for different segments in IDocs.
    That works fine.
    But if there are special characters like &, the interface mappings can't be found, because for the conditions the xml is already corrupt.
    So, i've tried to replace all occurrences of & with &amp; in a java mapping that is called before the xsl mappings.
    It doesn't work, because in that case conditions are processed before the java and xsl mappings.
    Do you have any idea how to replace special characters before conditions in receiver determination are processed?
    thx in advance

    Find out which character encoding the receiver system expects and put the same to the receiver channel.
    By default the file adapter would create a file with UTF-8, which might not be useable for the receiver.

    data: spe_char(31) value '~`!@#$%^&*()_+-=\|][{}";:,./?><'. ( include all
    special chars whatever u want)
    spe_char1 value ' '. ( this is to check empty space)

    spechar2 = text-001.
    if (fieldname) CA spe_char.
    MESSAGE "special character is present in the given input

  • Check special characters in a string

    Hi all
    I am using oracle 10g.......
    Need to know what should be the query to check whether a special character exists or not in a column value....used the following query like.....
    select count(*) into emp_no_count_special_char
    from dual
    where REGEXP_LIKE(insert_data_rec.emp_no , '[#!$^&*%./\|]$' )
    or REGEXP_LIKE(insert_data_rec.emp_no , '^[#!$^&*%./\|]' );
    This works fine in case a string starts or ends with a special character ,what if a string of special characters lies in between numeric digits.
    e.g: '100#$%7'
    Please help find a query that checks for the existence of sp. characters irrespective of their position in the column!!!
    Thanks

  • Just a simple check with special characters

    Hi guys and gals,
    i created a boolean method that will check the value of string for any special characters like (/,'%&^# ), what i did is to used indexOf() method. it will return false if the string doesn't have any special character. But, i'm having a problem using the check for the backlslach character ' \ ', since it is considered as escape literal when i put inside indexOf('\'). i really need you help on this.
    if you have other ways to check this kind of character, please put them here. i really need them bady. :D many thanks,

    Look for "\\" or look up the unicode for "\" and use that.
