Hi all,
In which format does the FAT16 file system file name is represented?
Whether it expects in Characters in Unicode or ASCII format?

If represented in Unicode, how do u represent file name in unicode?

Thanks,
Sachin

FAT 16 filenames are in the local 8-bit encoding. So on a US computer it's ASCII.
