If so, could you please give an example?
Many thanks.

Zach,
Probably Terry forgot the link.
However you cannot convert Unicode to ASCII. Simple enough by the fact that
ASCII is 7 bits while unicode 16bits, I assume that you understand that it
is impossible to translate that.
You can convert the first 7 bits. However, most people are mixing up ASCII
with PC-Dos code formats as 437 and 850 which are 8 bits and where the first
127 bit formats are equal to ASCII.
For that (and other encodings) are the text.Encoding classes. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...classtopic.asp
I hope this helps somehow.

I think Zach's point was that you suggested he looked at "this thread"
but didn't say *which* thread to look at - it wasn't clear whether you
were actually just trying to fool people into looking at the company
web site.

Sorry. You know I must have failed to paste in the link I was referring to
or it simply didnt get into the post. anyway, here it is. In fact this link
is a discussion with some people from the VB group who I know, and I thought
it may help the OP to look through it. http://www.dotnet247.com/247referenc...58/293655.aspx

While I thought that was probably the case, I think Zach's reaction was
pretty reasonable.
