=0AThanks for the links  and for the help, and you are correct saying that =

only works if you are really using ASCII (no characters above 127) =0Aand n=
o locale based conversion is applied.=0A(see =0Ahttp://www.wxwidgets.org/ma=

ith locale based conversion use something like:=0Acenterx=3DwxString(tempx,=
wxConvCurrent);=0A(see =0Ahttp://www.wxwidgets.org/manuals/stable/wx_mbconv=

 in wxWidgets space and use =0AwxTextFile instead of CTextFile.=0AThis way =
you wouldn't have to worry about string format conversions.=0A=0AAlso be ca=
reful with the line=0Acfile.InitializeWith((char *)file.mb_str( wxConvUTF8 =
