Hi, See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html and http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#getBytes(java.lang.String)
Also note that you cannot transform a latin1 string in a utf-8 string. What you can do is to decode a latin1 octet array to a String (java uses its own internal representation for String which you shouldn't even know about), and you can encode a String to an utf-8 bytes array. Cheers. J.
