I didn't realize that I needed to select a charmap.  IT works great now.   
Thanks Werner and Juliusz.

You're right it is pretty slow.  I've been having trouble getting a binary  
for this on windows.  I'm not very experience in these things.  If there  
is a precompiled one somewhere on the web let me know.  Otherwise I'll try  
and get cygwin working.  I suppose that will work.

Thanks for all your help.
