Don't expect REALbasic to read your mind, though; be explicit.
Another good line I never meditate enough...
For example, if it's the Windows-Latin-1 encoding that you have in mind, when you hold the belief that 153 is the Trademark symbol (I have no idea whether this is the case, but just suppose it for the sake of this example), then you should use Encodings.WindowsLatin1.Chr(153). Do NOT use just Chr(153), since 153 is not in the defined range for Chr, and if you are unlucky the result will happen to be what you expected on your machine, only to generate the wrong result on some other machine.
How can we get the current encoding and system font, crossplatformwise ? // My very best wishes to you all gettingstarters ! _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives of this list here: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
