AFAIK, this works only under Windows XP.
It does definitely not work under Win 98/NT.

This does indeed work under Windows 98/ME/NT/2k/XP; I do not remember,
whether it also worked under Windows 95.

This works in Word 2000, and up, but not in Word 97.
In Word 97, the only Unicode encoding available is UCS-2LE
(plain text via "File/Save as", File type="Unicode text";
the Word format is also UCS-2LE encoded).
