Test file input output trouble!

[Jens Jensen]

I use StreamReader and StreamWriter to manipulate a text file file .
The problem is that my Norgian characters get altered.

How can i preserve the character set to ASCI ?

Thanks

Hi Jens,

The default encoding for StreamReader/StreamWriter is UTF8. I'm guessing
the file isn't UTF8-encoded, so you need to use the overloaded constructor
and specify the proper encoding before you read/write. Try
Encoding.Default.
