Hi T. J.,

I already tried "UTF8" (based on some Google searches) and it
actually performed worse, as it did not translate any non-ASCII
characters at all.  Characters such as the left and right double
quotes were changed to ?.

I stumbled upon "UTF-8" after noticing in the GUI that the
character code encoding says "UTF-8" instead of "UTF8".  It
worked better, preserving the left and right double quotes,
but did not preserve the trademark and copyright symbols.
Whereas when doing the Save As from the GUI, all of those
characters are preserved.

Based on your suggestion, I also tried various fonts and they
don't seem to make any difference.

I'll give the d...@api.openoffice.org list a try.  Thank you!

Working in Basic, I hit a similar problem. After a successful load/store, the file itself (I looked with the IDE) had these interesting strings, which I copied:

aArgs(2).Name = "FilterName"
aArgs(2).Value = "Text (encoded)"
aArgs(3).Name = "FilterOptions"
aArgs(3).Value = "UTF8,CRLF,Times New Roman,en-US,"

Otherwise, you might have more luck posting your question on the d...@api.openoffice.org list.

HTH
