You should not convert self...

For example, if you store German single bytes,
Should be 

    db.Create()         << db files will be UTF16 self


Later

    db.IOEncoding("German")


    PutString("Some German string")
        ^^^^^^^ Valentina Self will convert
        FROM "German" to UTF16


    str = GetString()
        Valentina self converts from UTF16 to
            IO Encoding, i.e. German.
