format ucs2

UCS2 is an unofficial Unicode standard plane encoding system using 16 bits, it may be unofficial but its the default encoding system for Java and lots of other stuff these days, basicaly if you know your Unicode hex values you can do it all without problem, just remember that every character has 2 bytes not one and that UCS2 is NOT a character set like Unicode is, UCS2 is a 2 byte encoding method for Unicode, a small but important distinction.

If you want to go from ASCII to Unicode then there are a billion examples on goggle too look at.

Example
Code: 
Character
	
A
	U+0041     Unicode
	0x00, 0x41 UCS2 Encoded Unicode
é
	U+00E9     Unicode
	0x00, 0xE9 UCS2 Encoded Unicode
θ (theta)
	U+03B8      Unicode
	0x03, 0xB8 UCS2 Encoded Unicode
€ (euro)   
	U+20AC     Unicode
	0x20, 0xAC UCS2 Encoded Unicode

UCS2_High_Byte=Unicode&&0xFF00;
UCS2_Low_Byte=Unicode&&0x00FF;
