Location: Alexandria, VA, USA                Hi Everyone,

I have a weird problem trying to save German text from a TextField into an RTF 
file like this:

Code: 
  tos = f.CreateTextFile
  tos.write eula.Text
  tos.close

The RTF is really just a text file.  There is no rich text formatting.  It 
works fine if everything is written in English, but when I get a EULA written 
in German it does weird things with the non-latin characters.

For example, the word "unveränderter" will become "unveränderter".

Any idea why this might be happening?  I can copy and paste into an RTF file 
and there are no issues.  I can't find any way to set the text encoding for 
output, only input.

Unfortunately I'm stuck with the RTF format because INNO Setup uses it.

Thanks!
