character-encoding

Hello experts! I'm having a weird issue here.

I have a bunch of Views, in which I have characters like this: é, á, ó, etc.

In one of my Views, I can fetch data from the database with accents just fine, but in another one I simply get the "weird" characters.

What can i be doing wrong? Do I need to configure something in order to this work?

Thanks!
