Brant Says:
I get the same thing when I do System.Charset and Desktop.Charset... 
However, when I get unicode, it does this:
?conv("benoît",System.Charset,"Unicode")
ÿþb [followed by 11 boxes... unprintable Unicode Chars, I'll assume...]

?conv("ÿþb           ","Unicode",System.charset)
Syntax error

[Again, keep in mind that I assume the spaces after the ÿþb are 
unprintable Unicode Chars]...

I'm at a loss for ideas as to how to work around this, to just make it 
work with Windoze...  I understand that you are a Busy Man, like all of 
us, Benoit...  But if you could maybe point me in the right direction, 
I'd really appreciate it!!!

oh...  btw...  How did the production go that you were a part of??

Thanks!
