Frank,
> does it matter?
Yes it does!
If you are writing the file in Windows 1252 encoding, but then attempt to
read the file in the "OEM US encoding" an umlauted a will no longer be an
umlauted a.
Or worse, if you are writing it in UTF8 (the default for the StreamWriter)
and attempting to read it under Windows 1252, again an umlauted a will no
longer be an umlauted a.
Hope this helps
Jay
