Unicode to GB/Big5 conversion using ASP script

Problem: How to dump text strings encoded in Unicode and stored in, for example, ACCESS database to a webpage?

need to tell your script to convert the unicode to a normal character set.

The command in ASP is:

       Server.HTMLEncode(put the string here)
