5022 File cannot be opened as Unicode as it contains an odd number of bytes

Cause

This error occurs if your application code attempts to open a file containing an odd number of bytes as Unicode.

As all Unicode characters occupy two bytes, a file containing an odd number of bytes cannot be a Unicode file.

Action

Change your application code to open the file as File.Kind_Binary or File.Kind_ANSI.
