Filtered HTML only partially does the job. Can I save that in ASC

[AWIcurrent]

I get the feeling based on cutting and pasting into notepad, that the
filtered HTML is saved in Unicode. This seems to cause some problems when we
email that to various different products. For example " gets changed to an A
with a circumflex in OUTLOOK. But if we go into the HTML and cut and paste
it to notepad, and then go and change the characters to their correct format
and finally save this as an ascii document, everything works OK.

This is a big pain in the neck. So the question is, can we tell Word to
Ascii and not unicode when it saves the filtered HTML?

Thank you

In Tools=>Options=>General=>[Web Options]=>Encoding you can set the character set attribute.

Your solution looks good for Word 2003 but I could not find where the tools
are in Word 2007.

In Word 2007 you can get to them via either
Office Button=>Word Options=>Advanced=>General=>[Web Options]
or
Office Button=>Save=>Save As=>[Tools]=>[Web Options]

That does it, thank you. Now starts the testing to see if it solves some
problems in email rendering of Word htm files.
