Re: Character Problem
Ok now I know that it the XML parser that is doing it. If I remove the line
that is writing <?xml version="1.0"?> to the file, and open the file in VS
IDE then it looks fine.
Why is that?
I have tried the code I posted, with the projects Character Set set to both
Use Unicode, and Use Multibyte. neigther one works.
I am starting to think that I would have to use come kind of tag to or
something.

I am opening the XML file in IE, trasforming it using XSLT.
Try this. Create a dialog based application, put a button on the dialog,
and
place this code in it's handler. Run the app, and press the button, then
open the resulting txt file in Visual Studio IDE.
CStdioFile File;
File.Open(_T("Text.txt"),CFile::modeCreate|CFile::modeWrite);
File.WriteString(_T("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n"));
File.WriteString(_T("<?xml-stylesheet href=\"aypClass.xsl\"
type=\"text/xsl\" ?>\n"));
File.WriteString(_T("<!DOCTYPE standardReport [\n"));
File.WriteString(_T(" <!ENTITY % xhtml-lat1 SYSTEM \"xhtml-lat1.ent\"
\n"));
File.WriteString(_T(" <!ENTITY % xhtml-special SYSTEM
\"xhtml-special.ent\"

File.WriteString(_T(" <!ENTITY % xhtml-symbol SYSTEM \"xhtml-symbol.ent\"

P.S. One thing that is bugging me is that just now I removed all the lines
in this method execpt for the line that outputs the 0xF7 chars, without
all
the other lines it shows up fine in the file.

OK, I don't know which parser you are using, but with Xerces I had a
problem
with high-bits being set unless I either compiled in Unicode or set the
"embedding=" string to something that was 16 bit like ISO8859-1. Could
be
the parser is replacing the character that it doesn't recognize with a
default character.

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
