Re: Microsoft Layer for Unicode on Windows 95/98/Me systems



Wow, I have unleashed a moster!

As a general comment on this sub-thread:

When I said that I thought VB was not unicode capable, I was not
referring to whether it did or didn't use W api's, or unicode strings
internally, or anything else like that.

I just meant that as I understood it, it was not possible to write a VB
app, using normal VB controls, that would work correctly using any
language supported by unicode.

Hence the posts like: "I'm trying my VB app on a japanese locale, but
it is displaying squares in each textbox, instead of japanese
characters", & so on.

Cheers,
TC
