i want to edit the ip address in a remote desktop connection file, but it is a unicode file, when i read the file using line input then write it back out as a new rdp file it saves as unicode, but the text is ansi so it displays as weird characters
i can convert the file to ansi so it diplays correctly, but i would prefer to keep it in the unicode

Code:
Open "mytest.rdp" For Input As 1
        Do While Not EOF(1)
            i = i + 1
            Line Input #1, strln
            If i = 6 Then
                lnarr = Split(strln, ":")
                lnarr(2) = vastip
                strln = Join(lnarr, ":")
            End If
                rdpstr = rdpstr & strln & vbNewLine
         Loop
       Close 1

    Open "mytest2.rdp" For Output As 1
        Print #1, rdpstr   ' Mid(rdpstr, 3), will save the file as ANSI
        Close 1
