Encoding / reading mysqldump script

I am trying to read a large .SQL file generated by MySQLDump, to selectively
use portions of it (as opposed to restoring the entire database) and am
encountering difficulties doing so from within a C#/>NET program.

It appears that mysqldump uses an encoding other than UTF8/UTF16/ASCII as I
have tried all of the above unsuccessfully - no matter how I try to read the
file, the System.IO.StreamReader object returns some kind of converted
values for characters with code > 127.

Before I go and read it all as a binary file, can anyone enlighten me on
what's going on? It's entirely possible that this is all my own lack of
understanding of the topic of encoding ...

Thanks,
Patrick Questembert
