Getting to the Bottom on UTF-8 and UTF-16 on RunRev

[Dave]

Hi,

I'm working on a Client/Server application which uses WebServices on  
the server and a Soap Layer on the Client. All works well in General,  
but now a problem has come up whereby if we change the stream from  
UTF-8 to UTF-16, the Server gives an error.

My question is, in RunRev is the character set used UTF-8 to !6? If I  
send a message built up from data from fields and text strings using  
the "post" command, would it send UTF8 or 16? If 8, how can I convert  
UTF-8 to 16?

I'm pretty confused as to how and when UTF-8 or 16 are selected in Rev.

Thanks for your help
All the Best
Dave
