I thought that:

Mac "Addressbook" does not want to import them and "TextEdit" does not show the umlauts, although I open the files manually and select "Textencoding: Unicode UTF8" in the open dialog.


Assuming the text in the field is "plain Rev text", and that you need to export UTF-8. I think it's a two-step process.

put uniEncode(fld "vcard") into tVar ## create 2-byte unicode
put uniDecode(tVar, "UTF8") into tUTF8Var  ## decode to UTF8
put tUTF8Var iinto url ("binfile:" & etc.)

Actually, you should be able to do it in one statement (untested):

put uniDecode(the unicodeText of fld "vcard","UTF8") into URL ("binfile:...")

After all, it's all about the smallest number of lines of code, right? ;-)

Yeah. I read that somewhere. :-)
