Check (pun intended and extremely proud of it :-) ) these sites:

http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/charset/latin1.gif
http://nl.ijs.si/gnusl/cee/charset.html

You'll notice that both characters you mention in the comment have the same
code 232==0xE8, one in the ISO 8859-1, the other in the ISO 8859-2 encoding.


It seems that you created the resource file on a machine and/or with a program
that used ISO 8859-2. The program you copied&pasted from for your post used
ISO 8859-1, though.


I think that if you could convince your program to read the resource file
using the ISO 8859-2 encoding, your problem would go away. I can't tell you
how to convince it to do that, though.
