I am working with some DBF files for a client which I believe were created/are being maintained through Clipper. I am writing a VB6 application to access them (the scope of the project is large and includes Oracle data as well which is why I'm using VB to do this)

My problem is that when I access international data (French, Spanish, etc) I think the Unicode conversion is corrupting it and it reads special characters incorrectly. So far I've had no luck with the API call WideChartoMultiByte - does anyone have any other suggestions? ANYTHING would be much appreciated at this point! Thanks!
