Consider the following scenario. You create a team site in
Windows SharePoint Service 3.0. Some characters in the path of the site contain
accents. For example, the path contains the é character. Additionally, you upload a file to the team site.
Then, you use the E-mail a Link feature in Windows SharePoint
Services 3.0 to send the file to a recipient. The E-mail a
Link feature generates a link in a new e-mail message in Microsoft
Office Outlook. In this scenario, when you click the link in the message, the
link does not work.
In the Norwegian version of Windows SharePoint Service 3.0,
you have a folder in a document library that contains one of the Norwegian
characters. For example, the folder contains æ, ø, or å. In this scenario, the
Send To link for the documents in the folder is
broken.
In the English version of Windows SharePoint Service 3.0
that has Japanese language pack installed, you have a document in a document
library that contains Japanese characters. In this scenario, the Send
To link for the document is broken.
In the Hebrew version of Windows SharePoint Service 3.0
that has no language pack installed, you have a document in a document library
that contains Hebrew characters. In this scenario, the Send To
link for the document is broken.
Assume that you use Word 2003 to
create and save a document that has custom content type to a SharePoint
document library in
the French version of Windows SharePoint Service 3.0. In this case, the content type gets stored as a folder instead of as the content
type that was assigned.
