        I'm really not sure what you're looking for here.  UTF-8 is a character encoding specification, Unicode is a character set.  What you are probably dealing with is UTF-8 encoded Unicode data, in which case, no "conversion" is necessary.

        I suspect you may be working on Windows, where the term "Unicode" is (unfortunately albeit understandably) used to refer to UTF-16LE.  If this is the case, you can convert UTF-8 to "Unicode" by opening the UTF-8 file with Notepad, then using "Save As" and selecting "Unicode" as the format.  This will work on Windows 200 and XP, but not on Windows 98 or NT4.  I do not know whether it works on Windows ME.

        If this is not your case, please provide more information.
