I would appreciate any help from anyone who may use Corel WP 8. I create my auctions in WP 8 and then cut and paste the title and description into the Create Listing. Before, when the images refreshed the page, the title would have a "y" with two dots above it, and the description would start with "". Since the page refreshed, I just deleted these and went on. Now that the images attach immediately and save a step, I would like to get rid of these symbols, or codes. Otherwise, the new way for attaching images doesn't help me any.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and thanks.

Are you saying that the title should have some characters other than upper or lower case letters? If this is the case you are using some reserved characters that you cannot use. There are a number of them although they all do not have the same or any effect you'll need to figure out which is the offending punctuation using trial and error.
Republican, the other white meat!

Are you sure you are not cutting and pasting WP8 word processor codes in the auction? If so they would probably show up as some junk in the auction format.

Not sure this will help you, but if I remember right WP has a feature to display the codes on and off. Try displaying them and excluding them in your drag when you select to copy. You could try cutting and pasteing to notepad from WP8 and see if that brings over the codes.
And the other poster told you right that there are certain symbols etc. that ebay won't accept. Are you using quotation marks, or ampersand or anything like that in your titles, because they will show up as junk, too.

When I cut and paste into either notepad or wordpad and then to Vendio the symbols do disappear. When I turn on the reveal codes in wp8, I still don't see them to avoid when cutting and pasting. I guess I should be creating auctions in my wordpad.
Thanks for the help.
