When I add a new file to a VS 2008 project, it saves it to disk using UTF-8 encoding. I can change this by using the Advanced Save As File menu item, but I would prefer to configure my VS 2008 to save files in Western Europe (Windows) encoding (code page 1252) by default. I could not see any Option settings that would allow for this. Is there a way to configure VS 2008 to save files using an encoding other than UTF-8 by default? Thanks for any help. -Dave |

Weird. Mine defaults to 1252 (My user locale is French/Belgium). What type of file are you creating (.cpp, .cs, .xml,...) ?
