    It looks like Word 2003 uses neither! When I save a document that includes an é in Word's native format, the file contains a single byte with value 0xe9 for that character. Perhaps Word uses the default MBCS character set if the text can be fully represented in it...
     
    Cheers

            Hello Everyone
            Does anyone know a way to determine the method used to encode a M.S Word document? I believe that 2000, XP and NT Operating systems use UTF16, but I want I am seeking confirmation.
