I may need to nest a seperate command call as you can flag unicode output. Any ideas anyone.

I do not believe there is any support for unicode in the CMD process. Certain commands may support it but the shell processing it very likely to fail. The symbols are not exactly corrupted but rather are being reported on byte at a time as would be expected by a process that does not understand unicode. I suspect this is not a solvable problem with the current shell.
