Changing the code page in a .bat file (Win7 vs Win Vista)

Question

I have a strange problem while trying to change the code page in a .bat file.

When I run the following .bat file on Windows 7, it works fine.

The code page is modified and program.exeexecuted.

Batch file:

chcp 65001

"D:\program.exe" /opt ÄiÜ

pause

However, when I run the .bat file from Windows Vista, the code page changes and a batch file is issued after that.

That program.exewill never be done. However, when I run two commands manually from the command line, it works.

Any idea how to make this work under Windows Vista from a .bat file?

If you select the contents of the batch file in the dos window (enter batchfilename.bat), you will see that the file name is correct. (It will also look correct in totalcommander built into fileviewer, but it will look like garbage in notepad)
