But this function returns for my locale ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ISO-8859-15. I know this is the character encoding I use, but perhaps a lot of languages use the same character encoding or not? I need this value only to exec the correct help files for the users language. Perhaps my understanding of locales and character encoding is wrong. regards Andreas ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
