Specifies whether imported data from text file should be treated as unicode (UTF-16).

object.SetUnicode unicode 

Arguments

object
Required. A Chart object.
unicode
Required. A boolean value.

True : imported text file is treated as unicode (UTF-16).
False : imported text file is treated as ASCII.

Remarks

The method SetUnicode should be used in conjunction with the SetDataFromTxtFile method. It actually specifies whether the text file to import via the method SetDataFromTxtFile should be treated as unicode or ASCII.

If you call the SetDataFromTxtFile method without previously calling the SetUnicode method, the text file to import will be treated as an ASCII text file.

VBScript Sample Code

The following VBScript code illustrates use of the SetUnicode method.

'Import the data from an unicode text file
chart.SetUnicode true
chart.SetDataFromTxtFile "C:\myUnicodeDataFile.txt", true, true, true

'Set the graphics settings from a style file
chart.LoadStyle "C:\myStyle.scs"

'The chart is complete, we can now generate the movie
chart.ExportAsResponse
