Folks,

What code page do I use to display umlauts and other fun German things?

We are changing our system to use MSGF entries for all "literals" in our 
display files so we can "easily" have multiple-language support.  We have our 
first round of data back from the translators.  However, some characters did 
not map according to expecatations - the umlaut became the 3/4 symbol, for 
instance.

Thanks for your help!
