Dim success As Boolean = False

'  If the XML file specifies the encoding in the XML declaration, such as:
'  <?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-16" standalone = "no" ?>
'  Then it's simply a matter of calling LoadXmlFile.
'  Chilkat will automatically read the XML declaration and will
'  process the file correctly.   For example:

Dim xml As ChilkatXml
xml.Initialize
success = xml.LoadXmlFile("qa_data/xml/sample_ucs2.xml")

'  If, however, there is no XML declaration to indicate the character encoding,
'  then you must explicitly read the file according to what you know
'  is the correct encoding.  For example:
Dim sb As ChilkatStringBuilder
sb.Initialize
success = sb.LoadFile("qa_data/xml/sample_ucs2.xml", "utf-16")
'  Assuming success...
success = xml.LoadSb(sb, True)

'  To convert to the XML from utf-16 to utf-8, do the following:
xml.Encoding = "utf-8"
Log(xml.GetXml)
success = xml.SaveXml("qa_output/sample_utf8.xml")
