iso-8859 / utf-8

[magnusk]

I receive xml-files which I extract and make records in a FileMaker database. My problem is that files come to me in iso-8859-1 giving me trouble with some charachters.

My lasso file do:

- read incoming files to variable

- extract first file to variable (xml_extract)

- loop through variable setting datas to array

What command to use and where should it be applied?
