The actual command I used was <set the unicodetext of fld "ProcessedFile"
to uniencode(fld "ProcessedFile, "UTF8")> (extraneous "the" in my first
example)
I had no problems with this. In fact, it processed a file with about
300,000 lines in just a few seconds.
And then save the field much like this:

I tried some variations of this but was not able to save the file from
within LC and still have the Kanji viewable in TextEdit. I guess you didn't
read the part about teaching to the imbecile because the rest of your
explanation was way over my head.
But thanks for trying.
I would still like to find a way to do this from within LC.
