how to encode Chinese characters?

[gholamghar]

Hello
i have downloaded a c++ code from a chinese site,a part of code is like this:

#define max_x   127       //x·½ÏòµÄ½ÚµãÊýÁ¿
#define max_y   127       //y·½ÏòµÄ½ÚµãÊýÁ¿
#define t_max   200000    //Ñ­»·µÄ×î´óʱ¼ä²½
#define nu      0.00252   //Ô˶¯Õ³¶È£¬Í¨¹ýµ÷½Úð¤¶È¸Ä±äReynoldÊý 

as you see the descriptions after // are not in english language and are not displayed correctly ,how can view them in their original chinese format so i can translate them from chinese to english with google translator?
is there and character encoding in microsoft visual studio 2008?
thanks in advance

Try opening it in Unicode/other formats with an editor like Notepad++.

I would be tempted to rename the *original* file to .txt and open it in FireFox/IE/Opera and then change the encoding in the web browser between, unicode, utf8, big5 and gb2312. One of these should work unless the Chinese got mangled somewhere.
