Hi Narik,

WideCharToMultiByte () is your friend. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...icode_2bj9.asp

Also, I would probably use CFile and a CString - its just much easier.

You may also want to read the MBCS Survival Guide located at http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/de...sdn_mbcssg.asp.

Finally, if you are using MFC, you have the conversion macros at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...otes_tn059.asp.
