However it's quite common for people familiar with VB to not realize that ASCII officially only encodes positions 0 to 127. Often they don't realize that what they have been calling "ASCII" is one of several dozen "extended ASCII" encodings which encode positions 128 to 255 in many different ways that usually do not correspond with Unicode.
