unicode text file

i need to create a unicode text file.
i have lots of unrecognized characters in my database which are swedish and stuff...

how do i write a text file which can support these types of characters?

i need to pass that file to rar as a rarlist of files.

when i created a normal text file, rar cannot understand the other characters, but when i created it in unicode, using ultra edit, rar was able to recognize the characters. so how do i create this file in c#?

Try something like this , I didn't test it but it should give you the idea :

Code:

---

Stream st=File.Open("filename",FileMode.Open);
Encoding enc=Encoding.GetEncoding("pass your text here or see other params");
StreamWriter sw=new StreamWriter(st,enc);
sw.Write("write anything to the file");
sw.Close();

You can use System.IO.StreamWriter class.
You can use the method Write of StreamWriter and can also specify the Encoding when you write into a file !

have a nice day :)
