A character string you want to convert
to an ANSI blob

Return Values

Blob. Returns an ANSI blob if it succeeds
and an empty blob if it fails.

character string to an ANSI blob. ToAnsi has
the same result as Blob(string, EncodingANSI!)

Unicode files sometimes have two extra bytes at the start
of the file to indicate that they are Unicode files. If you are
opening a Unicode file in stream mode, skip the first two bytes
if they are present
