public static string ToDta(string s, bool fWithUmlaut)

Parameters

s string: Unicode string to be converted to DTAUS0. If null, then null will be returned.
fWithUmlaut bool: If true, then the german Umlaut characters are converted just as described. If false, then the german Umlaut characters are converted as 'A', 'O', 'U', and 'S' respectively.
