How do I store and retrieve double byte characters in a foxpro table?

VFP 6.0 SP5

I have an existing application that stores U.S. and European HTML documents
and now I have been asked to include the Pacific Rim.

I need to store html files, with double-byte characters, in a table's memo
field, then retrieve them and
display in IE.

Do my tables have to be in a specific code page?

Does anyone know the exact steps to store double-byte characters and then
retrieve them so that they will display correctly in Unicode compatible
controls?


Thanks in advance,

Craig

Thanks Anders,

I have tried the StrConv function, but must be missing something because I
can not get it to work properly.

Do you know the exact sequence to store and retrieve, let's say Japanese?

Thanks in advance,

Craig
