RE: Mount Volume?

I'm not sure if RB can do this alone. I remember asking a similar question a year ago or so and I don't think I received an answer. I think this can be done using AppleScript from within your RB application. You can probably also accomplish the same thing by launching an external VBS script or BA

Thanks Sven and tthanks Joe, Mathieu's suggestion works great for me, it is only one editfield that I will need to use it in. I saved the RB Text Encoding FAQ as a .pdf file and I will go through it. Thanks again, as always. Lennox. Sven E Olsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On 2006-08-01, at 9:0

You have just experienced encoding hell. Try something like text = text.convertencoding(encodings.macroman) before outputting to the file (assuming you're working on a mac, on windows replace macroman by windowslatin1). The reason is because RB defaults to UTF8 so you need to explicitly convert
