Has anyone found a way to present Outlook Sync Connected table data in a way that does not gave so much weird characters?  My Sync table is readable, I guess, but a lot of strange characters come though.

Hi, Mark,

By weird characters do you mean all the html in the message body? If so, you may be able to use a regular expression to strip them out. I'm not familiar with Outlook Sync so I'm not sure whether you can apply a regular expression during load. In Pipelines, it is possible to apply a regex as a step in the import process. Pipelines (or Jinja) also has a built-in mechanism to strip HTML. https://help.quickbase.com/pipelines/transforming_data.html#Transforming_text

If you have a minute, what is Outlook Sync?
