OH! NOO! FreeFile strange character found

[rebelscum0000]

Dear all,

Windows XP W/SP3, Access 2002 W/SP3

I have a .CRC File that I can read with the notepad

Is a large file and I want to extract several strings, the data
contained in this file is something like:

DIR DVD APPZ X\Appz Internet\Web Pictures Downloaders\SurfWare Labs
\Aaron's WebVacuum\Soft V2.50F\Ver\
5f21a584227db00cb5015b5fc244d53f Ver.txt

My problem begun when I changed my code using FSO, and now I use
FreeFile

First I did extract all the strings that begins with DIR
I am opening a recordset, using .addnew and .update functions.
This all works fine until the string finds

DIR DVD APPZ X\Appz Pocket\mdm\ZINCâ„¢ V2 Pocket PC Edition\

Note: the TM Is the small one of Trade Mark

In the Tb appears:

DIR DVD APPZ X\Appz Pocket\mdm\ZINC"! V2 Pocket PC Edition\

How can I fix it?

Thank you very much in advance

This is my code:

Open strDir For Input As #intFF

'Discard the first seven lines of the file
For i = 1 To 7
Line Input #intFF, ReadText
Next i

Do While Not EOF(intFF)
Line Input #intFF, ReadText
MyDirSelection = InStr(1, ReadText, SearchChar, 1)

If MyDirSelection = 1 Then
LenDir = Len(ReadText)
Debug.Print "LenDir= " & LenDir
'DIR Folder\Folder\...
MySearchDirMid = Mid(ReadText, 1, LenDir)
Debug.Print "MySearchDirMid= " & MySearchDirMid
'MyDirResult1 = Trim(MySearchDirMid)
'MyDirResult1 = Trim('" & MySearchDirMid, "'", "''") &
"'" )
'""" & MyReplaceDirFolder & """"
Debug.Print "MyDirResult1= " & MyDirResult1
'Folder\
MyDir = Mid(ReadText, 4, LenDir)
MyDirResult2 = Trim(MyDir)
MyDirRev = InStrRev(MyDirResult2, "\", -1, vbTextCompare)
'Folder\Folder\...
MyDirLeft = Left(MyDir, MyDirRev)
MyDirTrim = Trim(MyDirLeft)
MyDirResult3 = GetFolder & "\" & MyDirTrim


MyCounterDir = MyCounterDir + 1


'Initialize Variables
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("TempData_Tbl", dbOpenDynaset)

With rs
.AddNew 'Add a new record
!ID = MyCounterDir
!DirHashFiles = MyDirResult1
'!MyDirectories = MyDirResult2
'!MyDirectoryPath = MyDirResult3
.Update 'Write the new record to the table
.Bookmark = .LastModified
End With


End If
Loop


Close #intFF
rs.Close
db.Close
Set db = Nothing

Without diving too deep into your code, it looks to me like you might need to
use the built-in Replace function to replace any characters that are not
within the range of Chr(32) [space] to Chr(126) [~]. If you find any
characters that are outside of this range, replace them with a zero length
string ("").

-Ok this could be a solution, the question is why is returning DIR DVD
APPZ X\Appz Pocket\mdm\ZINC"! V2 Pocket PC Edition\ AND NOT DIR DVD
APPZ X\Appz Pocket\mdm\ZINCâ„¢ V2 Pocket PC Edition\?

Thanks in advance
