Hi,

I'm trying to generate a DOS-Batchfile out of Excel and everything works fine until there are german umlauts (like ä, ö, ü) in it.

E.g. if I write a command like

mv c:\ae.txt c:\ä.txt

to the file and I execute the Batchfile the prompt shows

mv c:\ae.txt c:\õ.txt

So, ä gets replaced by õ

I'm creating an Ascii-File

'create Batchfile
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = fs.OpenTextFile(vBatchFile, 8, True, 0)

but it looks to me that there are differences between ASCII-Format and DOS-Format.

Any ideas?

Best regards,

Rainer
