That suggests that the encoding is indeed Windows CP-1252. x94 in CP-1252
represents the Unicode character x201D, right double quotation mark.

This suggests that if you change the XML declaration of the file to say
encoding="cp1252", and run it through a parser that recognizes that encoding
(not all do, necessarily) then the correct data should be passed to your
application.
