Every time there i am using words with apostrophe ( ' ) in any word
in my html blurb - i get the following error -
'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x92 in position 2104: invalid start
byte
I am running satchmo 0.92 and django 1.3.1 on Windows.
Am i missing configuring any settings?

Is your database encoded as UTF8? And are you sure its a 'normal' apostraphe? For example, are you copy/pasting from a word document or entering from a keyboard? (Typically thats when I pick up other encodings is from word doc's)

Anurag,
it can't decode it because \x92 is not from utf8 but from cp1252 or
cp1250 or similar windows encoding.
Never change default encoding which is utf8 and use an utf8 capable
editor for all customizing.
Satchmo supports all possible characters.
The character \x92 is not "apostrophe" but "right single quotation
mark".

Thanks Dave and Hynek
Yes, i have been using sqlite (so assumed that i was utf8
compliant), but was copying and pasting from a word doc.
thanks a lot

Is your template file encoded in utf-8 ? .. (i really don't know how this works in Windows).
Anyway you can try the entity "'" if you wanna solve the issue _quick_ .. but I do recommend you read some about encoding/decoding/unicode in python.
Cheers.
