If you open Tools->Preferences, you can change the default encoding used by JabRef to Utf-8 - I assume this will make the file open properly. JabRef will then by default save the file in the same encoding, so if you want to write it using cp1252, you need to manually change the encoding under Database properties before saving. -- Morten ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
