The docs say, "Currently, the focus of TxtConvertEncoding is to convert
between Unicode-encoded text and the devices character encoding. For
this reason, TxtConvertEncoding can only handle conversions between the
devices encoding and one of UTF-8, UCS-2, UTF-16LE, or UTF-16BE. If
you specify any other character encoding for either the source or the
destination buffer, the error code txtErrUnknownEncoding is returned."

So, I don't think you can use TxtConvertEncoding() to convert to ASCII.

The sysAppLaunchCmdFind parameter block contains
  Char strAsTyped[maxFindStrLen+1];
in addition to
  Char strToFind[maxFindStrLen+1];

Can't you just use StrAsTyped ?
