Hi Tom,

I misrepresented the problem a little. I am writing this out to an XML
file. The XML parser complains that the character (G 0xF7) is invalid.

When I open the file in a text editor like notepad or VS IDE, the text
doesn't look like it should, but if I open in a hex editor, I can see that
the chars are both 0xF7.

If I open the file in a text editor again, and copy/paste the character out
of Character Map program into the text file and save it. Then everything
works fine with the XML parser, and when I open it in the Hex editor the
value of the chars are 0xC3B7.

What I can't understand is what is the difference between what I am writing
to the file, and what get's pasted when I paste the char from character map
program.

Hi Ali,

Looks like a font problem, but is the character in question stored in the
file correctly? And are the proper chars in the string when it's read back
in?

Hi Everyone,

Here is another thing that I can't figure out.

I am writing a text to a file
File.WriteString(_T("2 x 3 = 6 3 x 2 = 6 6 G 2 = 3 6 G 3 =
2.\n"));

But when I read it back I get

2 x 3 = 6 3 x 2 = 6 6 2 = 3 6? 3 = 2

I am not sure why the G (character 0xF7) is not showing up correctly?

The funny thing is that the first one doesn't even show up, and the

second

one shows up as a block.

Any solution to this?

Ali
