hello ,, does someone know how i can acomplish the folowing task ,,
i have a program with a HTML interface and i need to write Russian chars to
the generated HTML files
my database is unicode ( access 2000 ) the characters in the database are
perfect however when they arive in vb and written to the text file they are
transformed to squares and other garbage
i was so desperate that i tried it on a Russian version of windows but same
thing happens there
if i use a VB form i can set the charset to a control and it will appear in
Russian however writing to a text file will result in garbage in the file
when i open it in Notepad or the webbrowser
strange thingy is if i look on a Russian website it appears OK , if i save
this file local to my system and open it with notepad it is also OK ( win

so the problem is probably that the string var that holds the data before it
is written to the text file mixes things up ???
how to solve this ???
