Google's geocoder not encoding special characters

I am developing a geocoder using Google's geocoder API, and I am having difficulties passing an address with special characters into my personal geodatabase (.mdb)

Here is the original address:

96 Rue Gâtineau, 17150 Saint-Georges-des-Agoûts, France

And here is what gets inserted into my geodatabse:

encoding error in database, see image

I have tried setting the charset in my .HTML file to "ISO-8859-15" as I mainly need English and French characters encoded.

I also changed the charset in my .ASP file to "<%Response.Charset="ISO-8859-15"%>", but neither of these seem to help with the special characters.

Any advice?

Why you don't use UTF-8?

Take a look also at the default encoding in your database. In my experience, the encoding needs to match throughout.
