with the boolean in the constructor of the streamreader you can set it to

A textfile can have different formats like ANSI,UTF8, Unicode ...
Using streamreader for a textfile can have different results for chars
like
é,à,è....depending of the fileformat.
To solve this problem I have in the code analysed the chars in the
beginning
of the textfile, named the BOM to see the system.text.encoding for using
this information in the streamreader.
But my question is :
Is there a way that vb.net can do this automatically?
Thanks for any response
