Usually that's a sign of formatting or crap data or something like that being held in the database.

Can you print the code that retrieves and displays the values?

Do you have control over the content of that field in the db and if so are you certain that it was only normal text that was inserted?

Yes it's just text fild in a database & to access simple write the ADO query which is

<%= rsCatalog("prodsave") %>

the only thing is when i remove the pound sign it's came up fine
but when i insert the pound sign then it's bring the  there is no extra white space ?

rest of the code is working fine.

Thx for you concern.
