Reading DosFile

[josemauricio]

Guys, I'm having some problems.

I'm needing to read a DOS standard text file and put its text in a variable. But, when the text has some accented characters, this characters isn't shown.

What should I do?

Thanx for any help.

José Maurício.

What encoding is the file using? You'll have to run it through the corresponding Encoder class to convert it to VB.NET's internal UTF-16 encoding.
