Decoding extended ascii

[waynew]

I have a response coming back from a website that I am receiving as follows:

QList<QString> list;
 QByteArray result = reply->readAll();
	QString data;
 
	for (int i=0; i<result.size(); i++) {
    	data = result[i];
    	list.append(data);
	}

QList<QString> list;
 QByteArray result = reply->readAll();
	QString data;
	
	for (int i=0; i<result.size(); i++) {
    	data = result[i];
    	list.append(data);
	}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The list is populated ok, as one long QString. The data looks ok. The problem is that the fields are delimited with extended ascii characters, such as ascii(184), ascii(185), etc.
and these show up in the data QString as the ascii characters, not 184, 185, etc.
So how can I set the coding of QString so the extended ascii characters show up as 184, 185, etc?
