HELP,
1) Does any one know how I can determine how a text file is encoded. – ie. Is the text file I am opening UTF8 or not. Word usually knows when it opens a file – how does it know?

2) Any knowledge of classes that will allow me to convert from other formats to UTF8 , either MS Word, other Unicode formats etc. I am dealing with a foreign language so I presume that straight text is really not an option.

Would VB asp do the trick – probably very messy trying to have a servlet go to vb script and back…
Thanks a load
