ASP.NET textbox UTF8

Question

I have a field of a table named SpeakerName. When I show it in a table, it shows the name correctly (eg. Efraín), but when passing it to a textbox, it shows this: Efraín I think it is a UTF 8 and ASCII problem, how can I set the textbox to show the text correctly?

You can adjust with

var result = Server.HtmlEncode(yourText);
