How do i create a unicode stream writer?
Below is my code but its ascii...

private FileStream myStream;

//Create the Stream Writer, this is ascii

sw=new StreamWriter(myStream);

sw.WriteLine(Buffer + "\n");
 
Lou,

There is a constructor for the StreamWriter class which takes an
instance of the Encoding class (or rather, a class that derives from
Encoding). You can set this to whatever encoding is appropriate for the
underlying stream.

Hope this helps.
 
can you give me an example??

Lou,

If your underlying stream uses Ascii encoding, you can change the
constructor to this:

// Create the StreamWriter.
sw = new StreamWriter(myStream, Encoding.ASCII);
