Could you paste your code please?
And how would I recreate the file? Or can I just copy and paste your quoted characters into WordPad and that would work fine?

Hmm okey.
just checked a little closer now.
it seems that the file is saved on ansi encoding.
if I change to encoding to something else, the vbcorelib will read it fine.
I can't see any options in encodings that is ansi.
dosen't it support it?
I'm using this to read the file.
Dim reader As StreamReader
' Opens a reader using a FileStream object returned from File.OpenRead.
Set reader = NewStreamReader(File.OpenRead("template.mht"))
Text1.Text = reader.ReadToEnd

Hi, Sorry, there is no ANSI encoding. I've never looked into it since it wasn't in the DotNET library. So I'll go ahead and blame Microsoft Kelly |

Could you try this and tell me if it works?
Using this to get an Encoding
Set reader = NewStreamReader(File.OpenRead("template.mht"), Encoding.GetEncoding(1252))
This will get a custom encoding. In this case for us westerners.

That's great!
BTW you don't need to use File.OpenRead, you could just use the filename directly. A FileStream will be created automatically.
Set reader = NewStreamReader("template.mht", Encoding.GetEncoding(1252))
