Hi Robert,
your binary access was the missing gap in our VB.net demo, thanks!
Passing strings works fine here (and on other WinXP i know of) so it
must be some special settings >(Unicode/UTF-8/versions?) you have. JDK
1.5 with a current Win XP should work fine.

Well, I am glad that I was able to be a small help.
Here are my settings, what setting do you use?

System.out.println(System.getProperty("file.encoding"));

My computer did have international language support with cyrillic
keyboard input, but, I have removed everything, trying to find the
answer. Still, strings do not work. :-( How did you install the JDK,
with european language support? That seems to be the default now.
