I have a project where I need to transfer data from a half dozen Word documents to a REALSQL database. Because there are only six documents, I do not need to automate Word. The data in each Word file is in a tab or pipe separated format. The only thing mildly unusual about the documents is that they are in German, so the characters ä, ü, ö, and ß must make the transition. My questions: Which text file format should I export the Word documents as so that when I import the data into REALbasic I don't lose those characters? And, will I be able to use the TextInputStream or must I resort to the BinaryStream?

Thanks,
Erick
