Frame Characters -- Search and Replace

[Pinkham, Jim]

Further note: The characters are correct when I open the MIF file in Notepad++; the substitution occurs once the file is opened in Frame.

Hi, all,
 
I'm trying to simplify conversion of some x-refs in a manual going to Mexico. If it works well, I'll be using this conversion fairly often. I'm using ReplaceText 2.2 (formerly "BK ReplaceEm") to work on MIF files exported from FM 9. 
 
During a test run, everything seems to be working cleanly EXCEPT the accented characters.
 
Thus:
 
Comunicación de peligros y riesgos por sustancias químicas peligrosas
becomes
 
ComunicaciÛn de peligros y riesgos por sustancias quÌmicas peligrosas
after I rename the MIF files to FM files and open the converted file in FM 9.
 
(Note the accented second "o" in comunicaion and the first "i" in quimicas, if you're not reading this in HTML.)
 
Unfortunately, as an old WMX client used to say on a job long ago, "That dog won't hunt!"
 
I'm running Win XP SP-3 and FM 9.0p255.
 
Suggestions welcome :)
 
TIA,
Jim
