Hello everyone,

I have a question for you.
I need to do some processing on a bunch of text files, using VB 6. I know that they are UTF-8 encoded files, but is there a way to figure this out before I start process them? Some VB objects or functions, maybe, that could open file and return their format so I could make a decision how to process them?
Looks like Scripting Runtime won't be much of a help here.

Thank you in advance.
