Thanks for the replies. OK heres the full code I'm using now - compare = u"Äis" print compare str = raw_input("Enter music:") words = str.split() uniList=[] for word in words: uni=unicode(word,'latin-1') uniList.append(uni) print uniList[0] if(compare!=uniList[0]): print "Not the same: " + compare + " " + uniList[0] This gives the following error - Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "test.py", line 14, in <module> print uniList[0] File "C:\Python25\lib\encodings\cp850.py", line 12, in encode return codecs.charmap_encode(input,errors,encoding_map) UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character u'\x8e' in position 0 : character maps to <undefined> How come I can print compare but not uniList[0]? What encoding is being used to store compare? How can I print out the raw bytes stored in compare and uniList[0]? Thanks again for your help, Aine.
