I'll let Tuviah give the authoritative answer to this but this issue has caused me a great deal of frustration. I am gradually coming to get consistent behavior. Yes, you need to convert from ascii code to unicode 16 before you import a stack. At this point, RR will not import JSIS. I have used both cyclone and uctrans: http://www2u.biglobe.ne.jp/~kitabo/ uctrans seems to do a better job. Recently, Tuviah told me offlist that she had just modified the uniencode function to support converting from shift-JIS, and other common encoding to unicode and vice versa. So maybe we will be able to do this in the future. HTH Ron PS perhaps you can forward important problems/questions from the Japan list. I can't seem to keep up. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
