Problem loading string with special characters from a Table

I'm trying to read out a string with non-standard characters, such as "€Ööß", the literal entry in the table's cell is "CHAR€ÖößTEST".

When gather this data from the cell and try to display it using a Display Text behaviour on this particular string it returns on "CHAR", when I log the data, it also logs CHAR with about 2 lines of blank spaces in the debugger.

The strange thing is when I append data to ß and display it using the Display Text behaviour it outputs the special character just fine as "ßCHAR" (missing the special and non-special characters behind the CHAR from the cell).

Does anyone know a way around this? Is this a character encoding problem?

    I have just copied your CHAR€ÖößTEST and inserted it into a table.
    I have no problems when using DISPLAY TEXT to display the hole string.

    Actually, that answers my question :) I did the same, and I have no problems. According to my webbrowser this webpage is encoded in UTF-8, so I guess that's what strings in the Table have to be, thanks! :D
