Hi people

I need to convert some text.
I have a code wich convert it to ASCI Characters.
Now I need to convert it olso to Unicode Characters in the same way.

the code for the ASCI characters is this:

if chr is equal to "d" then
			return ASCII character of 226

Yarnin,

If it’s less than 225, use, for example:

(ASCII character 200) as Unicode text

for other characters, you need to know the hexadecimal values:

«data utxtF8FF» as Unicode text

For heavy text processing though, use another language like Perl or Python. They’re way faster than AS and have much better libraries for this sort of thing.
