Don't get me started! :-) As it is, we're talking about Microsoft Active Directory LDAP here - so I need to find out just what that is from a charset point of view. I mean, M$ make a big thing over Unicode - but the LDAP data certainly isn't Unicode. In fact, from what I can find off Google, LDAP (include AD) uses ISO-10646 - which is a superset of Unicode. Apparently all standard ASCII chars stay the same, and the rest are converted into the double-byte Unicode. However, I'm definitely getting ASCII-8bit chars out of LDAP - so I don't know what the hell's going on :-) -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
