VB 6.0 Encoding

I have a requirement to read/write binary encrypted file from two applications, one application is VB 6.0 and other is VB.NET.

What is the encoding scheme of VB 6.0 , I am using "ISO-8859-1" , it's very near to accurate but still it gives some error in displaying data in VB.NET app.

What is the different between Chr and Chrw .. why "ISO-8859-1" scheme is using Chrw is some places. Please help

I figure out the issue. The encryption mechanism in VB.NET app was using default Encoding and generating characters which were not present in "ISO-8859-1". So the writin to file fails.Once I corrected the encryption class to use correct encoding, the problem resolved.
