I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I understand. The Unicode for the "¥" character
is 00A5, but in Shift-JIS it becomes 005C, which is normally the Unicode for
the "\" character. Whereas the "\" is normally 005C but in Shift-JIS it is
0080. Why can't we just find and replace one for the other?
All My Best,
