Default Custom .vcs file: Problem with unicode characters
You need to encode the Unicode characters correctly?

Hi,

I'm using vbscript to create custom calendar entries (.vcs files). This
was working perfectly on outlook 2003 but on the .vcs files of outlook
2007 it has different format. I managed to break it down and understand
how it works but I have big problem with Greek characters (Unicode)...

Inside the .vcs file the characters are displayed like this
"=0D=0A=E5=EB=EB=E7=ED=E9=EA=DC=0D=0A=0"
I also see a new field "ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:"

Keep in mind that if I create a new calendar item though outlook it
displays correctly...when I save this as .vcs and open it with notepad I
get the garbage characters.

What do I need to change/add on the custom .vcs to recognize Unicode
characters so I can create manually .vcs files ???

thank you

Regards,
Vassilis
