<P><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Windows 98 is like Windows 95, but here is the kicker -- both can convert from the codepage that they are setup with to/from unicode. This is significant because COM on Win9x as well as NT is *ALL* unicode internally (thus, MS's DOM (being a COM object) does everything internally in unicode all the time (although I must plead ignorance as to its usage of the LF-CRLF-CR thing that this thread is about).</FONT></P>
