with BBEdit Lite for OSX create a textfile with high asciis

you"ll have garbage and you'll able to do nothing

That's because REALbasic doesn't know which encoding the file is stored in. Before REALbasic can correctly display the characters, you will need to let it know which encoding was used by calling the defineEncoding method. After you do this, the text should be able to be displayed correctly. HTH
