I've written a program to write out an automated, delimited invoice file, and it seems to work properly, the file looks correct in notepad. However, when the file is received on the other end, there are a couple of extra characters at the beginning.
The code is basically
fWriter = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter(OutputPath)
LineString = 'insert line here
fWriter.WriteLine(LineString)`
the screenshot from the client has a three odd shaped characters at the beginning. They aren't in the input string, and I'm lead to believe it's because the OpenTextFileWriter isn't writing ascii, but it's a flat text file, or it's supposed to be. Any help would be appreciated.
