Hi Onno (or is it Knol?)
You are correct, it has something to do with codepages and charactersets, and Unicode...
What you are seeing is the fact that although Windows is (mostly) Unicode aware and Access is (mostly) Unicode aware, there are some, quite a few actually, "got ya"s involved.
The situation was worse in Visual Basic, Access and VBA are better. VBA does support unicode strings, however, the VBA editor only allows VBA files to be encoded in the 8-bit codepage Windows-1252.
If you are lucky the only thing that will be wrong is that when you display the variable contents is that the font being used won't display the extended characters properly and you end up seeing a '?' for each character which the (non-unicode parts) cannot convert.
Depending on how you picked up the filename from the filesystem, the variable *should* hold the correct characters, even if the display on screen looks wrong.
Yours, Andrew
