Thank you everyone that replied. Yes indeed, I was using the wrong encoding for the downloaded text (It should have been ISOLatin1).

Last dumb question. How do I write this string in a BinaryStream and have it retain it's encoding. To be perfectly honest, I'm writing to a custom Lingua file, and when I load the file, all the diacriticals come in as illegal characters. I'm beginning to see that my guess of MacRoman was also incorrect (especially for cross-platform compatibility). Any hints from Real as to what the encoding is supposed to be?

Ok, so what's the RB equivalent of ISO-8859-1 encoding?

I don't get an empty string when I run your code using 2006r3 on XP. It doesn't make sense that you would get an empty string -- it's either a weird
bug or you had some other unaccounted for problem.

As Mars said, though, the text is being returned to you as text/ html with
ISO-8859-1 encoding.
