Encoding issue?

[whattan00b]

I believe this is an encoding issue due to the resulting output.

The short of it:
I am trying to make a batch file (meaning .bat) from VB.NET. The output looks fine in a normal text editor, but when executed via the command prompt, it keeps giving me syntax errors to start. I have a hunch it's due to the code that I'm using (or the lack thereof) that is causing the issue.
As you can see below I've even tried using CharCodes, but still to no success. I'm sure it's just an encoding issue, but perhaps some outside help would do

Module Module1
    Sub fileop()
        Dim cd As String
        Dim fnd As String
        Dim del As String
        Dim ms As String
        Dim inp As String
        Dim cb As String
        Dim efnd As String

        efnd = Chr(32) & Chr(62) & Chr(32) & "output.log"
        If Form1.CheckBox1.Checked Then cb = " /I " Else cb = ""
        inp = Form1.TextBox1.Text
        ms = My.Settings.Setting2
        fnd = "@find "
        del = "@erase "
        cd = "@cd "
        Try
            Dim filePath As String
            filePath = System.IO.Path.Combine( _
                       My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.MyDocuments, "test.bat")
            My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText(filePath, cd & ms & Environment.NewLine & fnd & Chr(34) & inp & Chr(34) & Chr(32) & "test.log" & cb & efnd & Environment.NewLine & del & filePath, False)
        Catch fileException As Exception
            Throw fileException
        End Try


    End Sub

End Module

Post your resulting batch file

There are 2 instances in which draw "non-system" characters in the command prompt. The first one is quite obvious.. it's gibberish, the second one the number "1" is not even in my code. So that is incorrect as well.

Use streamwriter for writing your data and excplicitly point System.Text.Encoding.ASCII in its constructor.
