Can you elaborate? I can't see how this would work unless the "Unicode" file contained only a subset of Unicode which corresponds to the 7-bit ASCII character set... in which case the Unicode version of the file will be identical to the ASCII version of the file, possibly save for a 3-byte encoding marker (which is optional and largely unnecessary) at the beginning of the file. -- Derek D.
