How to remove special characters embedded in people picker

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am using Quest Webpart for SP 5.7.  I use a people picker to store speakers for each event. We noticed that, after adding a new speaker, some special characters (ie. #86;) was added between those names on our qListForm.  Is there a way to remove or disable these? 

Please advise.  See attached PDF screenshot.

Thanks,

I had the chance to discuss and see this issue with and I confirmed that this happend because she was using a lookup field that was bringing an additional field of type people or groups and the "strange characters" were the standard SP way to identify a lookup value (using  #).
