CharSet

Syntax 

dataobj.CharSet = sValue

Identifies the character set of the data file.

sValueString expression that describes the character set used for the data file. If no value is supplied, the input file is interpreted using codepage 1252 (Western Alphabet).

In normal use, the CharSet property is set in the Web page (or is left at its default value) and never referenced again. Although you can set the property when the data has been loaded, this will not change the interpretation of the data. The only exception to this is if the DataURL property is set to a new value that forces all properties to be reevaluated.

The following are the possible values for the CharSet property.
