How do you view the file? Notepad?

When you view the file with Notepad, you do not see the characters as they ar, as Notepad uses the system codepage..

rename your file with suffic .txt and open it with internet Explorer.

Assign the encoding to view the file correctly

Then use a hex editor and check if the values are correct according to the codepage.

Besides: Did you ask the receiver of the file, which codepage is expected?

It is useless to put ISO8859-1 when the receiver expects UTF-8 or something else.

Hi

The character set used for English, French and Spanish (and most common European languages) is ISO-8859-1
